We strive to even the odds for equity deserving communities.

Together we can create pathways and bridge the gaps between institutions and communities to catalyze

social and economic inclusion of equity-deserving communities across Canada.

Be a Homeowner

Home is more than a place—it’s stability, pride, and freedom. Through our partners and programs, we’re working to open doors to affordable housing and lasting equity.

Break barriers. Build skills. Unlock opportunities that put you on the path to success. From training to connections, we make sure talent gets the spotlight it deserves.

Become a Mentor

Share your wisdom. Shape someone’s future. Mentorship is how we lift as we climb—creating a cycle of growth and opportunity that lasts beyond us.

Build your Business

Got a big idea? We’ll help you turn your vision into a venture that lasts. With guidance, resources, and community, your dream business is within reach.

Our Focus Areas

Research, Data + Development

By gathering stories, data, and lived experiences, we turn insight into impact—ensuring equity-deserving communities don’t just get included, they get ahead.

Entrepreneurship + Financial Inclusion

We provide resources, training, and networks that put entrepreneurs and business owners on the path to success. Big ideas deserve the chance to grow.

Employment + Skilled Trades

We break down barriers to employment by connecting equity-deserving communities with skills, training, and job opportunities. Talent should always meet opportunity.

Homeownership + Affordable Housing

We work with partners to open doors to affordable housing, access to stability, pride, and long-term equity. Everyone deserves a place to call home.

Our Partners

We prioritize strategic partnerships to drive inclusive growth and employment. We are proud to collaborate with community-focused organizations, as well as all levels of government, to create an ecosystem for progress and success. Our work focuses on the “three Ms”—money (growth, credit and capital); market (connections and contracts); and management (education and talent). Over the next five years, our efforts will facilitate change across essential areas such as digital connectivity for knowledge access and networking.
