This year, MRC will join a national cohort of 18 innovative employment social enterprise leaders to grow our business and increase our impact as a participant in the 2021 REDF Accelerator Program!

REDF Accelerator is a five-month program for Employment Social Enterprise (ESE) leaders to develop and test strategies to improve operations, programs, and financial sustainability within their businesses. At the conclusion of the program, ESEs receive a grant to implement strategies and activate ideas.

We are so thrilled to participate in the REDF Accelerator program in order to help us create a training and apprenticeship program for Open Arms Studio, as well as diversify our revenue so that we can continue to create livelihood opportunities for refugee women in our community.
