Re-Defined is non-profit started in 1.5 yrs ago with the goal of empowering people from marginalized communities especially BIPOC community and international students. The main ways in which we hope to empower the youth is via provision of access to education, opportunities and necessary resources. Our education comes in the form of workshops which cater to topics raging from social issues to skill/career based topics. We couple these with provisions of access to opportunities in the form of events, mentorship programs, networking, fellowship opportunities and community engagement and provision for access to resources such as those of menstrual products, school supplies and more Through this work we have been able to impact around 30,000 people across 4 countries: India (Pune, Mumbai, Delhi & Karnataka), Canada (Vancouver Halifax, Waterloo & Toronto), and Uganda and Ghana. We have also conducted 45+ events in the last 12 months for a community of 50,000+ international students in Canada to give them the tools na resources so that they can advocate for themselves and become CAREER-READY & LIFE-READY Overall, we have a community of 50K international students and immigrants across Canada across all our social media platforms Learn more about us here: redefined.social
