and supports multicultural awareness and understanding among
Canadians. We value education and work to educate Canadians on
the various cultures, religions, languages, and diversity of people
that make up society in our country. We work to mitigate racism and
bring citizens together like the pieces of a mosaic. Our foundation
also educates new Canadians to help integrate them with our
nation’s values and laws.
We are a not-for-profit organization run by committed voluntary
human rights supporters. We started out as a multicultural volunteer
group in 2009, and officially registered as a not-for-profit in 2015.

basis.

Forced
Forced is an award winning documentary, that has been screened
globally and aims to help end forced marriages. This documentary
aims to bring awareness about Forced Marriages here in Canada
and around the world.
Stories of Races
We put a call to action and asked people across Canada to send in
their short racism story (15-30 seconds long). We complied a few
of them, and here are the results.
K-12 Multiculturalism Awareness & Stop Racism Education
We are continually developing resources for k-12 classes to use
to create an understanding of the diversity of cultures, races,
religions in Canada, and tackle racism and bullying within the
classroom environment. We are deliver these presentations to
classes. For 2015, we delivered a total of 20 presentations.
Welcoming Syrian Refugees at the Airport
Through the power of social media, we have been letting
Calgarians know when Syrian Refugees are arriving in Calgary. So
far several groups have gone with positive signs, chocolates, little
gifts and smiles to welcome the newcomers at the airport. We are
so happy to see the positive spirit from Calgarians in welcoming
the refugees. We have also seen other folks in different cities
across Canada starting to do the same.
Ongoing Outreach
Through the year we has 15 different community
presentations across Calgary relating to
multiculturalism and anti-racism education.
