Each year CAWEE selects, based on strict criteria, a local or national charity to support either financially or via access to our membership. Potential charities submit a proposal outlining their position on women’s issues and how they feel CAWEE can assist them, and upon approval from the board of directors, the charity becomes aligned with CAWEE for a 12 month period in order to generate mutual exposure and support.

Community MicroSkills Development Centre is a multi-cultural, non-profit, community-based organization committed to assisting the unemployed, with priority to women, racial minorities, youth and immigrants.

Recognizing barriers that immigrants, racial minority, youth and women face in their efforts towards self-sufficiency, MicroSkills aims to enable them to participate more fully in Canadian society and assist them in acquiring the skills needed to achieve self-determination and economic, social and political equality.

We will periodically post Workshop information and Updates for MicroSkills on this page.
