What is a Community Spotlight? A Community Spotlight is the Community of Big Hearts shining the spotlight on a leader or organization by giving them a platform to tell their story so they can increase awareness that they exist to potential volunteers, donors, and raving fans who are willing and able to contribute back in any way they can!
We Got This Canada is an incorporated non-profit which aims to provide nutrition, assistance, and engagement to low income families, individuals with disabilities, special needs and seniors.
What is We Got This Canada
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit Manitoba, founders and couple, Rashmi Saxena and Ankur Aneja started a Facebook group to provide relief to Winnipeg’s families, seniors, and immune-compromised individuals who had lost access to basic necessities and needed assistance. The Facebook group started as a platform for community members to help each other. Within a few months, the group had thousands of members donating their time, food, and resources to those who needed it the most. Members of the group built a caring community who believed that they could overcome their challenges together.
In order to continue providing support to people-in-need beyond the pandemic, the founders incorporated the group as a non-profit in May 2020. Since then, team members have established regular programs to provide emergency meals and hampers, assistance, and engagement to people, with the help of local businesses and generous donors. Over the next few years, the We Got This Canada team hopes to grow and touch the lives of thousands of Canadians-in-need by building a caring and inclusive society where everybody is well nourished, supported and nurtured.
