Clare Beamish
Assistant Director
Clare is delighted to be back for another summer working with The GO Project. Previously, she has enjoyed facilitating Children’s Adventure Camps and our virtual programming and will now be working with our teams nationally to create some exciting camps for participants this summer. Before working for GO, Clare was a youth participant in three youth programs including: Toronto, St, John’s and Stratford, ON. During the colder months, Clare has recently graduated from the University of Windsor with a degree in Social Work and Disability Studies. Clare will spend this summer based out of St. Thomas, ON and is excited to enjoy a summer bonfire, read a great book and learn a fun new skill when she’s not too entertained by Zoom.
Beenish Khan
Fundraising Assistant
I am so excited to be joining the GO Project this year as a summer fundraising intern. I recently graduated from the University of Western Ontario with a degree in Political Science and will begin my Master’s of Arts in Political Science at Carleton University come September 2021. It has been wonderful working with all the dedicated GO staff and I am grateful to be contributing to the collective effort of empowering children and youth! Outside of GO, I enjoy singing, playing the guitar, and reading a good book!
Ryan Hanna

I am ecstatic to be returning to GO, having previously participated in Stratford and Vancouver, and worked as a counsellor for a summer. I recently graduated with a degree in Journalism and am aspiring to work at the intersection of how people move. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis and volleyball, walking on the beach and watching TikTok.
