International students confront a slew of challenges in acclimatizing to their new lives, in addition to the hustle and bustle of student life and the fleeting exhilaration of securing admission overseas. Students constantly struggle to adapt to the cultural norms or establish trust and long-term connections. This is where we, as an organization would like to step in and help bridge the gap to empower students, both individually and collectively, to acquire valuable educational experiences that will inspire lifelong learning and enable them to live their dreams.

In recent times, it has been recognized that even a global pandemic couldn’t prevent us from making the world a better and brighter place. Without the hard work and dedication of some remarkable people, volunteers, supporters and partner organizations, much of the volunteering that takes place at Ontario Heroes would not be possible. As a growing organization, we are always in need of such wonderful people and organizations to support our endeavours and gain a rewarding experience by embracing our platform to assist the community at large. On this note, we extend an invitation to join our organization as a student ambassador, volunteer, assist in blood donation campaigns, mentor, and embrace volunteerism, and community giving by adding value to our existing platform.
