Testimonials

"As a single mother, I faced numerous challenges balancing work and parenting. NIDO Canada’s Family Support programs provided me with the guidance and resources to navigate tough situations. The family counseling sessions helped me rebuild relationships with my children, and the financial literacy webinars taught me how to manage my budget better. Now, I feel more empowered and secure in providing for my family, and I’m proud to be part of a community that truly cares.

"Participating in NIDO Canada's international volunteer placement program was a transformative experience. I traveled to Uganda to work on water and sanitation development projects. I learned so much about different cultures and the real-world challenges communities face. It deepened my understanding of global issues and inspired me to pursue a career in international development. NIDO Canada opened my eyes to the power of community and the impact we can all have when we work together."

"The Youth Outreach Workers Program at NIDO Canada changed my life. I was at risk of dropping out of school and felt lost. The program connected me with mentors who believed in me and provided one-on-one support to address my academic challenges. Through workshops, I developed valuable skills in leadership and conflict resolution. I’m now pursuing my studies in social work and volunteering as a peer mentor. NIDO Canada gave me hope and a future I never imagined possible."
