So much fun to be inside the studios at CJCS and Today FM with Jamie Cottle to talk about World Refugee Day!
To mark the occasion of celebrating the bravery of refugees and build empathy so that we can welcome them to our communities, we are having a couple events in June! June 20th we will have a community celebration for World Refugee Day and then our Multicultural Festival later in June at the Falstaff Family Centre.
Follow us for details and please share so all can celebrate community and togetherness!... more

As a city councillor and proud member of Multicultural Association Perth Huron, it was my honour to cut the ribbon at the grand opening ceremony at Full House Bar & Grill.
This culturally diverse team also donated $1100 to Stratford Hospital Foundation to help fund the care they provide for this community.
I am excited and blessed to be part of such a happy celebration and look forward to watching this Stratford business grow.

Your Multicultural Association Perth Huron would like to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful and amazing moms in our community and everywhere.
A special wish for the mothers spending their first Mothers Day in Canada and for those back home in countries like Ukraine.
We hope your day was filled with the blessings you deserve surrounded by loved ones.

Economic Development!
Our sincere appreciation for FIO for helping us welcome new folks from regions like Ukraine with gainful employment! Their skill in communicating with and the high value they put on hard-working newcomers is a gift to the commuity.
So happy to be teaming up with manufacturing organisations like FIO to contribute to regional economic development and income for new families!
Thank you to the The Stratford Beacon Herald for the ongoing coverage and for all those who donate to help us do what we do. Especially to Bruce Whitaker recently for his energy and involvement.
Can you imagine how big a milestone it is to be in this picture having safely arrived from Ukraine? Huge but not finished as we have to settle, find permanent shelter in a rough housing market, then build a life here. We share our victories and work together tirelessly with the help of our supporters and donors.
Special thanks to Bruce Whitaker for helping to fund the expensive flight cost directly!
The Stratford and area Lao community celebrated their New Year's Eve together for the first time since 2020. Inclusive family fun in a big way for this fantastic part of our community.
So great to be part of so many cultural celebrations and enjoying our community with so many wonderful people!
Imagine all the things we get to help arrange and acquire for newcomers who make the long journey to start a new chapter of their life here.
None of this would be possible without the leadership of Geza and the Board of Directors, but they will all defer to the importance of supporters and those who donate.
Extra thank you to Leon's of Stratford for providing a deal on this mattress so our local dollars go further and help more people.
So many pieces to this beautiful puzzle and we couldn't do it with any... more

The MAPH and our Muslim community wish you happy Eid Mubarak!
We celebrated the end of Ramadan with that community feasting and being together.
Blessed to play a part in such a vibrant and diverse yet united community. Can't say community enough!
