Calling all Friends: Volunteers, Donors, Sponsors & Corporate and Community Partners! Rainbow Foundation of Hope is a Canadian registered charity founded in…
“I want to help out and contribute to communities that are important to me. I believe it is unfair that some of us don’t have the same rights as others purely on the basis of gender identity. I know that RFOH strives to foster equality and I am very grateful I get to volunteer with them.”
“It’s been such a pleasure to donate my skills to this incredible organization alongside the talented Social Media team. I am deeply honoured to help 2SLGBTQI+refugees and newcomers resettle in Canada.”
“You learn and grow from your life experiences….. I have many friends from the 2SLGBTQI+ community, and I adore the bond I share with them. They give me strength, the strength to speak for yourself and achieve what you want.”
