Our Story & Mission
The Millenia Integrated Volunteers and Internship Community is a registered non-profit organization dedicated to empowering communities through volunteerism, integration, and inclusive programming.
Creating Pathways for Everyone
MIVIC Canada was founded with a clear vision: to bridge the gap between potential and opportunity for all members of our community. We recognize that youth, newcomers, women, and seniors often face barriers in accessing employment, community engagement, and essential services.
Through our partnerships with government programs, community organizations, and international networks, we create structured pathways that combine skills training, mentorship, settlement support, and real-world experience.
Our programs are aligned with Canadian government funding initiatives including Canada Summer Jobs, the Youth Employment and Skills Strategy (YESS), and other federal and provincial programs that support community development.
