At Calgary Catholic Immigration Society (CCIS), our strength lies in the diversity and commitment of our partners and funders. From government bodies and educational institutions to community organizations and forward-thinking corporations, each contributes uniquely to our mission. This collective effort enables us to offer a welcoming hand to newcomers, ensuring they have the support need to thrive in our communities.
Our partners are important collaborators in providing essential supports for the newcomers CCIS serves. By combining the strategic oversight of government agencies, the innovative programs of educational institutions, the grassroots power of community services and the dynamic drive of the corporate sector, we have built a holistic support network. This network not only addresses the immediate needs of our clients but also fosters their long-term empowerment and integration into our communities.
Through their financial support, we aspire to create a world where individuals and families flourish, united in a journey toward growth, resilience, and enduring change.
The financial support from our funders drives our ability to develop and deliver effective and innovative programs and services that support the settlement and integration of immigrants and refugees in our communities. Their diverse contributions constitute an investment in our vision of an inclusive and prosperous society where all newcomers can reach their potential. The steadfast support of our funders fuels our mission, enabling us to make a real difference in the lives of those we serve.
While funding from the federal, provincial and municipal governments aligns us with broader societal goals, contributions from community groups and corporate sponsors expand the reach and impact of our programs. This synergy amplifies our capacity to serve effectively, making every dollar a step towards a newcomer’s successful new beginning in Calgary and beyond.
Together, we work hand in hand, pooling expertise and resources to empower newcomers, promote inclusivity, and drive positive impact across different communities in Southern Alberta.
At CCIS, our services are tailored to support a diverse range of individuals, including newcomers, refugees, and community members facing various challenges. Whether it’s providing settlement assistance, educational support, or employment training, our mission is to empower and integrate individuals and families, fostering a sense of belonging and resilience in their new journey.
