Culture
Connections
Help a newcomer adapt to Canadian life.
Spend two hours a week helping a newcomer learn about Canadian culture, history and lifestyles; participate in their community; connect with local new people and improve their English.
Social Mentors are matched with a newcomer and meet for two hours once a week for three months. You’re welcome to attend our entertaining “Culture & Conversation” nights.
You can volunteer as a Social Mentor if you have leadership experience, are responsible, empathetic and patient, familiar with Canadian life, fluent in English (accents welcome), and aged 19 or over.
Surround yourself with people who are only going to lift you higher.Anonymous
