ABOUT GROW A STAR
Grow a Star is an innovative youth mentoring and scholarship program, auspiced by Compass Housing Services, that helps young people from disadvantaged backgrounds overcome the financial or generational obstacles that are preventing them from following their dreams.
In households where finances are tight, young people often miss out on the sort of extra-curricular activities that play an important role in connecting people to their communities. Grow a Star encourages generational change by empowering young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to follow their academic, sporting or artistic dreams.
