Who are we? 我们是谁?
Since 1980, CCNCTO has been organizing with Chinese Canadians in Toronto to advocate for racial and economic justice and to build up our community’s capacity to engage in collective action for change. Our programming and advocacy efforts have been informed by the knowledge and experiences of our members, including Chinese workers.
⾃1980年以来, 平权会 持续组织多伦多的加拿大华裔,倡导种族和经济公正,并建⽴我们社群参与集体⾏动的能⼒,以实现变⾰。我们的计划和宣传⼯作⼀直以我们的成员,包括华裔⼯⼈的知识和经验为依据。
About the Campaign
This campaign is an opportunity to amplify voices that are often unheard and build solidarity across the Chinese community. In this campaign, we will share the stories of workers, to educate and inspire the larger community to recognize the importance of organizing. But to turn awareness into action, we need financial support.
这项宣传活动为放大华裔工人常被忽视的声音提供了机会,并将会促使在华人社区内建立起团结互助的力量。本次宣传活动还将支持我们的筹款工作。通过分享工人们的故事,我们希望能够教育和激励社区,认识到组织的重要性。然而,要将意识转化为行动,我们需要 资金支持 。
At CCNCTO, we have been committed to worker organizing for decades. Yet, funding our efforts has grown increasingly difficult, as much of our support is limited to ‘project-based’ funding. Many funding organizations, including governments, often hesitate to fund work that empowers workers directly with organizing knowledge and material support. That’s why we are calling on our community to help us raise flexible funds through this campaign—funds that can be used to respond directly to workers’ needs.
平权会几十年来一直致力于工人组织工作,但为这一事业筹集资金变得越来越困难,因为我们的许多资金都局限于“项目资助”。许多资助机构,包括政府,往往不愿意支持对直接赋予工人组织知识和物质支持的工作。因此,我们呼吁社群成员通过此次活动帮助我们筹集灵活资金,这些资金可以直接用于满足工人的需求。
Many Chinese workers receive low wages and experience precarious work conditions and systemic discrimination. With your support, we can transform awareness into action.
许多华裔工人收入低、工作条件不稳定,并面临系统性歧视。有了您的支持,我们就可以将认知转化为行动。
Why should I support a grassroots fundraiser?
我为什么要⽀持草根组织募捐?
Grassroots organizations, such as CCNCTO, focus on pushing forward work by and for the people . We actively involve Chinese workers, youth, families, and seniors in decision-making at CCNCTO and our direct connection to these community members allows us to understand, prioritize, and respond to the most pressing issues and needs facing them. 像平权会这样的草根组织专注于推动由民众主导、为民众服务的工作。我们积极邀请华裔工人、青年、家庭和长者参与平权会的决策,与这些社群成员的直接联系使我们能够了解、优先考虑并回应他们面临的最紧迫的问题和需求。
Here’s why supporting grassroots organizing is so impactful:

Empowerment and Ownership 赋权和自主 :
