about

Umoja Operation Compassion Society of British Columbia is a charitable organization formed in 2002 to work with newcomer immigrants and refugees living in Surrey, BC. Our society seeks to help promote unity, respect, and dignity amongst minority immigrants and refugees.

Newcomers to Canada can find it difficult to integrate due to obstacles such as poverty, learning a new language, unemployment, culture shock, isolation and feelings of hopelessness. Through Umoja Operation Compassion Society, we provide a variety of culturally sensitive programs to help families, children, and youth integrate successfully into their new social environment.
