Calgary Immigrant Support Society

Talking about immigrants never ends. This beautiful living room in Calgary Alberta, was decision to bring every sensation and comfort the living room can offer... to a family, beside to bring Syrian Traditions. Personally I noticed, this kind of setup really, really brings family members closer and closer to each other, It creat stronger bond among them, more healthier setting and you really stretch toss and turn in better way . If you think you or your family feels isolated internally. Seriously think about this kind untraditional Canadian living or Rec room. It works Thank you Abo Ahmad for sharing this with us .

THANK you Saima Jamal. well done _______________________________________ Saima wrote on her Facebook " On August 9, 2020 through Jumpstart - Refugee Talent we hosted a summer social at the beautiful Folk Tree Lodge in Bragg Creek where these highly skilled and educated refugees (mentees) and their professional mentors got together to network, build connections, share their refugee stories as well as their professional aspirations. Above all they got to hear some very valuable pearls of wisdom on how to succeed in Canada from different mentors and each other. The much needed and appreciated retreat was rejuvenating, eye-opening and very uplifting. If you are a recently arrived refugee with English level 6, have a professional background, are unemployed or underemployed and would like a mentor in your professional field, please register with Jumpstart Refugee Talent. If you are a Calgary based working professional who would like to give back to the community by mentoring a refugee for 6 months, please join us.

Nothing like seeing a new creation emerging from a Canadain Immigrant. We all have ways to contribute to our Canada . Allow me to introduce to you on Canada He...ritage day an Egyptian Canadian Real artist her name is Mayada Naguib . Mayada finished her education in Egyptian as Interior designer, but we all know the story of immigrants, they all need to start from the bottom again. Being a mother of three daughters its not an easy task in Canada, but still you have to find your footing in this land . After kids are grown and ready to start their journey Mayada found her talent with mixing nature and art . Mixing leaves from all around tbe world and put them as part of artistic piece of furniture. Every leave has a story, she remember every details about any pieces , its like a living creature. " This leave from here. That leave from there" she said I Met her today at Chinook Mall inside the Art Gallery where her work is available for sale to public .. " Sam, Egyptians built the pyramids with passion and dedication not by force and slavery. When works comes from our hearts ,it last forever " . I was taken by these well said words . Happy Heritage day Canada . I hope you will enjoy this contribution.
