"BCMSANB welcomed my family with open arms when we arrived from Bangladesh. They helped us find housing in Moncton, connected us with the local Bangladeshi community, and supported my wife's French language learning. Today, I work at a leading tech company and we're proud to give back by volunteering at community events."

"As a nurse arriving during COVID-19, BCMSANB provided critical support for credential recognition and job placement. They connected me with mentors in healthcare, helped navigate the licensing process, and I secured a position at Horizon Health within four months. The community became our second family in Canada."

"BCMSANB helped me launch my halal grocery store in Moncton. They provided business mentorship, connected me with suppliers, and helped navigate permits and licensing. My store now serves the entire Muslim community in Southeastern NB, and I employ five people. This wouldn't have been possible without their guidance."

"Coming to Canada as a teenager was challenging, but BCMSANB's youth programs changed everything. I found mentors, made friends from our community, and developed leadership skills. Now I'm studying at UdeM and serve as a peer mentor for newly arrived Bangladeshi youth. BCMSANB gave me confidence to thrive."
Farhana Begum Student and Youth Leader, arrived from Dhaka 2021
"BCMSANB supported my family's integration while helping us maintain our Bengali culture.

I now teach at a local high school and volunteer to help other Bangladeshi families navigate the education system in New Brunswick."
