My Story…
My name is Yohana. I arrived in Canada as a permanent resident last spring, sponsored by the Holy Trinity Refugee Committee. I was born in Ethiopia, but my family had to go to Eritrea because of the war between Ethiopia and Eritrea. After the war, I returned to Ethiopia because of religious persecution in Eritrea. Here in Canada, I hope to continue my dream of building a career. I have just started an office job where I use my three languages, English, Amharic and Tigrinya. My mother and sister are still in Ethiopia. (We lost our father to Covid-19 in 2021.) Holy Trinity has applied to sponsor them, as well. Will you help us bring them to Canada?
Donate to help Yohana raise money for 2023 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon’s fundraising campaign.
