Empowering Newcomers to Thrive in Canada

Welcome to the 1000 Seeds initiative, a transformative program by RISEC Community Foundation designed to help 1000 newcomers each year secure professional careers in Canada. We recognize the challenges that newcomers face when integrating into a new country, and our goal is to provide the support and resources needed to turn those challenges into opportunities. Through a structured four-phase approach, we guide participants from preparation to employment, ensuring they are equipped for success in their new home.
