Our Programs
At Global Impact with Mission Ministries Foundation (GIMMF), our mission in Calgary is simple: empower newcomers, uplift youth, families, and seniors in need, and build thriving, inclusive communities.
We believe every newcomer deserves a strong start and every young person and senior deserves a chance to thrive. Our programs empower recent immigrants and refugee families through settlement services, digital literacy, education sponsorship, employment readiness, food security, cultural integration, and youth engagement.
Together, these initiatives foster independence, resilience, and meaningful community connections.

This program ensures every child has access to quality education by covering tuition, uniforms, and learning materials.

Monthly parent-teacher forums and home visits promote consistent attendance and family engagement. Perfect Attendance awards encourage children to stay motivated and succeed academically.

The top-performing groups receive seed funding for promising ventures, supported by ongoing mentorship and field officer visits.
