"It’s all on me now"

Even just 5 minutes into conversation with Rauha Ahmed, it’s hard not to be blown away by her accomplishments.

“Have faith in yourself.”

These four words mean the world to Yasmine Ahmed, and why shouldn’t they? Even with all the odds against her, this BridgeTO Superstar used her ambition and drive to land some of the most prestigious scholarships in Canada…

Sofya, one of BridgeTO’s graduating students, has recently accepted her offer to York University's Commerce program with aspirations of starting her own business. She hopes to specialize in Management to develop her leadership and collaboration skills, both essential to her career path. With dreams of being a CEO so delicately planned out, many would assume Sofya has planned years in advance with intricate steps to achieve success - yet, this was not always the case.

Nastaxa, BridgeTO's exclusive in-house comedian, has accepted her offer to York University’s Science program where she aspires to obtain a career in the Biomedical field to nurture her passion for community service and science education. But finding the pathway to a successful future wasn’t smooth sailing for Natasxa and required immense perseverance and self-evaluation, both of which were developed through her endearing time with BridgeTO.

BridgeTO's co-president, Abubakary Drame lovingly titled Buba, has accepted his offer to the University of Guelph-Humber’s Journalism program where he hopes to pursue a 4-year co-op degree to explore the options available in this diverse field. Buba aspires to use his passion for media to work for the people and change the perception of the masses. He desires to use his platform to amplify those without the stage or oppurtunity to share their stories. But this advocate-nature wasn’t always prevalent for Buba.

On December 12, 2019, BridgeTO Youth had the honour to be invited Roche Canada’s head office in Mississauga for the launch of their STEM initiative. This was a full day event filled with activities, workshops and challenges exclusively planned for our youth.
