Upcoming Events:
This is a detailed narrative of the 2022 Summer Camp
Sinkunia youth over the Spring and Summer of 2021 have been sampling Digital Stories from different genres. Through that, they have created their own stories of immigrating to Canada.
These 2 to 5 minutes stories will cause all of us to reflect, appreciate and do more in the fight for inclusion, equity, respect, and diversity in our communities.
These stories support other new immigrant youth who may be going through the same challenges.
Sinkunia Collective Garden Project
Sinkunia Team and participants in collaboration with partner organizations, City of Edmonton officials as well as individuals from the neighborhood participated in our collective harvest event. Everyone went home with bags of produce from the garden.
