Paris, ON — Kathy found purpose selling soup on Thursday evenings at The Paris Community Church in Kitchener.

“I enjoy filling the orders and meeting new people,” she says. “It gives me something to look forward to each day, and it gives people on disability a chance to improve themselves.”

For her, the job is more than just tasks and technology. “I feel like I’m making a difference,” she says. Working at The Raw Carrot allows Kathy to contribute to her community, build confidence, and gain meaningful experience in a supportive environment.

Stories like Kathy’s show that when someone receives a hand up through supported work and a place to belong, they thrive. We invite you to get involved to help create more opportunities in even more communities across Canada.
