December Giving: Starting a New Career in a New Country

Most newcomers to Canada come with extensive job experience and skills.

However, finding work in their field is difficult and they are forced to take on other lower paying jobs to make ends meet.  Your donation will support programs that offer skills training, certification, hands on experience and employer connections so they can start a career in a growing industry.

You can remove barriers to employment for newcomers today with a gift to Goodwill Amity.

Let’s give jobs-seekers in need a “hand up” this December by raising $5,000 to remove barriers so they can participate in work.

Your donation will provide immediate support to those in need, so they can get the job they want.

While there are plenty of job openings right now, not everyone in our community can access them due to barriers like mental health, poverty, lack of experience, disabilities, immigration, racial discrimination and or childcare responsibilities.
