Congratulations from all of us at the Downtown Mission to the 9 incredible individuals who finished their Paid Internships where they got valuable on-the-job training on their journey to secure jobs for themselves ❤️

3 weeks ago, Matthew, Esther, Sean, Tammy, Shane, Moe, Lindsay, Kay and Haweyo graduated from their Enterprise Classroom Training and today they graduated from their Internships, finishing their Enterprise Program.

But they’re excited to be on to their next steps of securing jobs, going back to school for more education in a new field, finding something new and better for themselves/their family, and so much more!

It was great to hear of their positive experiences as they finished their Internships, what they’d learned, the people they’d learned from and things they were surprised to learn about themselves. As always, it was wonderful to hear of the hope and confidence that’s been restored in these wonderful, committed, hard-working individuals 🙂

Thank you to Brooke from the House of Sophrosyne for coming by to be a part of our celebration today and to Cheryl from the City of Windsor - Municipal Government as well as Councillor Renaldo Agostino who stopped by a few weeks ago to celebrate their Graduation from the Classroom Training 🙂

Thank you of course for our Enterprise Program Manager, Sharda Yadav who works so tirelessly on each Enterprise Training Group, supports Grads AND works hard to plan the next Session! YOU are incredible!!!

Thank you to our Funder - City of Windsor for funding the Enterprise Program through Employment and Training Services. Thank you for making this Program possible and giving people hope and a chance for a better tomorrow 🙌

Thank you to our faithful friends at Riverside United Church for having us out to your Sunday Worship Service this past Sunday to share with your Congregation the work and impact of the Downtown Mission.

Our local United Church of Canada Congregants started the Downtown Mission as "The Open Door Lounge" 54 years ago at Central United Church and we are SO grateful to having your continued support through the years to make sure our doors remain open for those who need us the most today in Windsor-Essex!!!
