Volunteer With Our After-School Basketball and Homework Club

Volunteer With Our After-School Basketball and Homework Club

We're EcoHoops for Kids Canada, a young nonprofit youth basketball program right here in Mississauga. We're just getting started, and we're doing things in a different way. No old-school drills, no treating kids like robots. We coach through play, and we develop the whole kid.

We're launching a free after-school club at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Elementary School. Starting Tuesday, November 3, every Tuesday from 3:00 to 4:30 PM. Kids in grades 3 and 4 will play basketball, have fun, and get academic help.

The second half isn't just homework. A lot of kids don't even get homework anymore. It's about sitting with a kid who's struggling with something and helping them through it.

We need volunteers to help Coach Adrian run it. Here's the deal: helping with the basketball portion is optional, but the academic half is a must. If you can sit with a kid and help them through their schoolwork, we need you.

This is a great fit if you:
- Are in grade 11 or 12, or in college or university
- Love kids (loving basketball is a bonus, not a requirement)
- Can help kids with their schoolwork — this is the must
- Want volunteer hours for school

When: Tuesdays, 3:00 to 4:30 PM, November 3 to December 15. That's 7 sessions. Come to as many as you can.
Where: St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Elementary School, Mississauga.

You'll never be alone with the kids. Coach Adrian runs every session.
