Newcomers to Canada bring a wealth of skills, experience, and potential, but often face challenges as they build a new life. From learning a new language and finding meaningful employment to navigating unfamiliar systems and cultures, the journey can be overwhelming.
On October 3, 2026, join TIES for the Climb Strong Corporate Challenge and take on the 802-step climb up the iconic Calgary Tower.
Every registration, donation, and step climbed helps provide newcomers and low-income Canadians with access to language education, employment services, settlement support, and opportunities to thrive. Together, we're building a stronger, more welcoming Calgary where everyone has the chance to succeed.

We acknowledge that we live, work, run and walk on land known by the Blackfoot name Mohkínstsis, which we also call Calgary. This land is on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot Confederacy, the Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuut’ina First Nations, as well as the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3. We encourage our team, race participants, and partners to reflect on colonialism’s enduring legacy and move forward in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
