Calgary Immigrant Women’s Association is pleased to share that we have just won a 2022 Ted Rogers Community Grant to further develop our Youth Mentorship for Immigrant Girls project that supports the settlement and integration of immigrant girls between the ages of 14 to 21 in school and community while focusing on enhancing their cross-cultural understanding and career readiness. The grant will help us continue to offer this critical program to youth across our community, needed now more than ever.

Ted Rogers Community Grants are awarded to registered charitable organizations or non-profits in Canada that are providing programming to youth ages 15-29 in the areas of education, entrepreneurship, digital literacy or health and sport.
