MOSAIC MOVES Walkathon

Looking for something to do this August? Spend a Sunday in Burnaby that actually means something.

Live music. Food trucks. A walk through the park. And a day out that's completely free for the whole family!

On Sunday, August 16, join MOSAIC at Central Park and Swangard Stadium for a walkathon unlike any other. Pick your distance, 1 km or 5 km, and follow a route marked by checkpoints that bring the real newcomer journey to life. It's a walk, but it's also a story. One that families across Canada have lived.

Behind it all is MOSAIC, marking 50 years of helping newcomers and refugees build new lives here. Every step, and every dollar raised, goes directly to programs that foster inclusion, resilience, and opportunity.

Together We Thrive.
