Programme d'accélération des compétences des nouveaux arrivants d'ICC has partnered with organizations across Canada to give volunteers incredible opportunities where they can build on skills and add Canadian experience to their resumes. And thanks to our volunteers’ hard work, we have the chance to continue building on this program.
Giulia Cocco, a dedicated volunteer, joined the Newcomer Skills Accelerator Program at its initial launch! She has since volunteered in various spaces and shared her remarkable experiences with us. After volunteering with East and West Learning Connections (EAWLC) in Toronto, Ontario, and Telus Spark Science Centre in Calgary, Alberta, Giulia’s journey will show you why volunteering is so valuable!

Giulia’s motivation to volunteer at Telus Spark Science Centre stemmed from her background in science and her passion for working with children. Her previous community work involved engaging with kids, making this opportunity a perfect fit.
While pursuing another opportunity, Giulia’s involvement with EAWLC was born from a desire to learn more about herself as a newcomer to Canada. She sought a place that celebrated diverse cultures and stories, making EAWLC the ideal choice as this organization provides workshops in a number of areas and mentoring opportunities to ensure people from all backgrounds can connect with one another and learn everything they can to succeed.

Giulia a initialement rejoint le programme d’accélération des compétences des nouveaux arrivants sans attentes sérieuses. Cependant, son parcours bénévole a dépassé tous les espoirs, lui faisant découvrir des organisations qu’elle n’aurait peut-être pas découvertes autrement.
Croissance personnelle et apprentissage
Giulia’s volunteering experiences have been transformational. She recalls a life-changing encounter with a stranger who emphasized the importance of pursuing one’s dreams. Ces mots sont devenus son mantra, l’aidant à surmonter de nouveaux défis et le doute d’elle-même.
Chez TELUS Spark, Giulia a trouvé l'inspiration chez une personne plus jeune qui a montré que la croissance personnelle ne connaît pas de limite d'âge. Cette rencontre a alors allumé un feu en elle, la forçant à travailler plus dur et à croire plus profondément en son propre potentiel.
Giulia encourage les bénévoles potentiels à saisir cette opportunité, soulignant que consacrer 120 heures à une cause qui vous tient à cœur peut être incroyablement gratifiant. Trouver un endroit où vous appréciez vraiment votre temps fera passer les heures, menant à des relations précieuses et à des souvenirs précieux.
Giulia’s volunteer experiences stand as a testament to the positive impact one person can have when committed to making a difference. Her journey serves as an inspiration to anyone considering volunteering to enrich both their lives and their communities. So, why wait? Join Giulia on this fulfilling adventure today!
