Join us to walk the newcomer journey together.
This isn’t just a walkathon. Each stop along the route marks a milestone that newcomers to Canada navigate: finding a home, getting a SIN, landing that first job, and building a life in a new country. As you walk, you’ll experience the resilience and hope behind every step MOSAIC has supported over 50 years.
Join us for a vibrant celebration featuring live performances, community booths, food trucks, interactive kids’ activities, prizes, and storytelling – all set in the heart of Burnaby!
