Community is more than just learning. True community is about being there for each other, building genuine relationships and connections, and sometimes just having a little fun 😁 For us, it can be as simple as not having to go through an often lonely journey alone. Check out this collaboration with our friends at Communitech and the words of long-time PORCH members and now ambassadors, Olumuyiwa Faulkner, Somayeh Akbarshahi, and Anna Sotnykova 💡: https://lnkd.in/epeXaBGx Some of our favourite quotes from these amazing immigrant entrepreneurs and professionals: 💬 “𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘦, 𝘐’𝘷𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰’𝘷𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐’𝘮 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘶𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴.” ~ Bruce 💬 “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴, 𝘗𝘖𝘙𝘊𝘏 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘨𝘢𝘱𝘴 𝘢𝘴 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘫𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘺𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘦𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘨𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳.” ~ Anna 💬 “𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦.
