The immigrants' champions awards was created to celebrate Canada’s multiculturalism, professionalism, allyship and community excellence. It recognizes the success of immigrants as well as other Canadians and organizations that promote inclusion in Canada.

Celebrated during Black History Month, the ceremony illuminates individuals and organizations whose professionalism, leadership, hiring practices, support programs and advocacy efforts have had a positive impact on immigrants and have encouraged more inclusive practices in the Canadian community.

The awards gala is a platform for bigger immigrant-serving organizations, immigrant-led grassroots organizations, employers and other stakeholders within the Canadian society to connect, learn and collaborate to better serve Canadian immigrants.
