WHO we are.
Our Origins
Project 5K is a non-profit organization created by youth for youth. The founders of Project 5K noticed that many youth want to volunteer, but they don't know where to volunteer. At the same time, there are many events that don't have enough volunteers. That's the reason why Project 5K started.
Mission
We aim to make volunteering opportunities more easily accessible for youth and connect them to various enjoyable volunteer opportunities to make their community a better place.
Outreach
Since establishing in 2014, we have been able to connect with over 2000 participants from over 150 schools across Ontario, and we continue to grow at a rapid rate.
