New CSAI donation campaign
to support LGBTQ
Together for LGBTQ+ Youth: A small gesture, a significant change

Make a donation

Our goal is to assist immigrants and refugees in their settlement and integration by offering creative, innovative programs that respect their cultural and linguistic backgrounds. We foster inclusive spaces for dialogue where everyone can thrive and actively engage in the host society.

Government funding does not cover all our activities. With your support, we can continue helping immigrants and refugees establish stable and fulfilling lives in Quebec.

Your contribution truly makes a difference!

Together for LGBTQ+ Youth: A Small Gesture, a Big Change

Many LGBTQ+ immigrant youth, including those who are refugees, face difficult times. Isolation and financial struggles complicate their integration and well-being.

That’s why we are organising this fundraiser to provide them with groceries and transit cards.

The grocery cards will help these youth meet their basic food needs, reducing food insecurity and associated stress.

The transit cards will give them more freedom to attend appointments, participate in training, or join community events. Transportation often hinders their integration and independence.
