United To Shine is a youth-led club at the University of Toronto dedicated to empowering children and teens with Down Syndrome through creative expression, inclusive friendship, and community outreach.
By joining our club, members will: (1) Volunteer in inclusive virtual or in-person workshops (arts, music, reading) with local Down Syndrome communities. (2) Lead or assist creative initiatives like social campaigns or awareness events. (3) Advocate for disability inclusion through campus-wide events and social media. (4) Connect with like-minded students who care about social impact and inclusion. (5) *Coming Soon – Mentor children/teens with Down Syndrome as a Shine Buddy and build meaningful friendships.
Whether you’re passionate about equity, love working with kids, or want to make a real difference in your community – there’s a place for you to shine here.
Together, we shine brighter!
