Our mission: To keep youth informed, connected, and engaged in our communities.
Our current youth are the upcoming generation of leaders in the community. Unfortunately, they can have a tough time finding the opportunities and resources they need to develop their careers. In fact, many students are often unaware of the many opportunities and events available to them. This is why we have established the PYN as a 'one-stop-shop' for youth to get in touch and have easy access to all the opportunities the Greater Toronto Area has to offer and more, specially tailored to them. We hope to give youth a helping hand in connecting them to everything relevant to them, all under one network. We constantly search for relevant information from dozens of sources and compile them on this network for easy access so students don't need to waste time finding it themselves. |
As a student-led organization, we also know exactly what it’s like to face the struggles of establishing a career. We’re here to help.
If you have any questions about your academic or professional career, feel free to message us on our Facebook page anytime. Our core executive team of dedicated, talented, and ambitious individuals is more than happy to offer you insight into how to prepare for graduate school, transition from high school to university, manage a heavy workload (particularly in the International Baccalaureate program), handle stress, succeed academically, and more. All information is kept entirely confidential. We've also developed our free online tutoring program in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to meet the needs of students as new challenges present themselves due to school lockdowns. Learn more about the steps we've taken for our tutoring program. |
A parsec is defined as an astronomical unit of distance equal to ~3.26 light years, which is meant to symbolize the sheer distances we can reach when we work together to help each other.
Our PARSEC Philosophy Potential We’re here to connect you to the right the resources and opportunities you need to reach your fullest potential. |
How and why are our services free?Simple - we're powered entirely by volunteers. We have each and every volunteer involved with the PYN to thank for making our initiatives possible. Since we're not government-affiliated, we run all of our services independently. Our executive team manages the logistics, coordination, execution, and maintenance of these services on a daily basis and of course, on a volunteer basis. Why? We're students ourselves. We understand the challenges of feeling under-supported. We know how difficult it can be to move forward in our careers without a helping hand. That's why we work so hard to support youth by connecting them to the right resources and taking away some of the barriers we faced ourselves. |
