IOS was very proud and privileged to partner with @CalgaryPolice, Best Help Family Foundation, and Habesha United to host a month-long Youth Summer Camp and a day of celebration at CPS headquarters. Thank you to all the staff and volunteers.
🟣 We were proud to host East African youth of all ages yesterday at the CPS Headquarters for tours, lunch & a chance to ask hard-hitting questions to our members at our camp press conference.
Thank you to Best Help Family Foundation, the @IOSCalgary & @YouthLinkYYC for providing such a fun day for not only the youth, but for everyone at the CPS that got to take part in dancing, celebrating & building relationships with community!
