Community Statement in response to the incident targeting the Rahma Masjid, Community and Youth Centre - July 2026.

Coming Soon...
THE SETTLEMENT DESK:
OFFICE HOURS WITH THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Every month, CMWI Executive Director Eve Sotiriadou opens her desk to address critical community concerns, offer actionable tools, and foster local solidarity. Through collective care and coordinated action, we can dismantle the local barriers facing our community, starting with August’s Back-to-School challenge.

EPISODE 1: The Back-to-School Fall 2026
Back-to-school season shouldn’t mean choosing between groceries and basic supplies. This August, we’re asking Winnipeg to step up with us in two direct ways:
1. Supplies: Drop off new backpacks or school supplies at CMWI, 201-61 Juno St, between Monday and Friday from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm CT.
2. Volunteer: Sign up as a Caregiver Buddy to help newcomer parents navigate school division forms and language barriers.
Watch the upcoming launch video, drop off your supply donations by mid-August, or comment below to get involved!

Thank you for the support and kindness you extend to our community!
