Our culture is a vital part of our identity, and BBIC is dedicated to preserving and celebrating Burundian heritage in Canada. Through cultural programs, we ensure that future generations remain connected to their roots.
How It Works We organize cultural events and festivals showcasing Burundian traditions, music, dance, and storytelling. Our language programs help individuals learn and maintain Kirundi, ensuring that our native language continues to thrive. We also provide platforms for Burundian artists, musicians, and performers to share their talents with the wider community.
Impact By engaging community members in cultural activities, we foster pride, unity, and intergenerational connections. Our events have been instrumental in bringing together Burundians in Canada, strengthening their sense of identity and belonging.
Get Involved Join us in celebrating our culture by participating in events, volunteering, or contributing to our cultural preservation initiatives.
A strong community needs a strong voice, and we work to ensure that Burundians in Canada are heard and represented. We engage in policy advocacy, working with government agencies and organizations to support policies that benefit our community. Our leadership development programs encourage Burundians to take on active roles in decision-making and community-building efforts. .
Adjusting to life in a new country can be challenging, but no one has to do it alone. We help newcomers settle by providing guidance on housing, healthcare, and government services. Our mentorship programs connect new arrivals with experienced Burundians who can offer advice and support, while our community networking events create opportunities for meaningful relationships and social connections.
Your support can change lives. Whether you’re donating, volunteering, or partnering with us, every action counts.
