DonateOUR IMPACT
Since 2024, Markham Community Connect has been bringing children, youth, seniors, families and volunteers together through sports, learning, cultural celebrations and community activities. Our journey is built on simple moments that create friendships, confidence and a stronger sense of belonging.
Explore Our ProgramsMCC began in Markham with a community-focused purpose: bringing families together and creating opportunities for children, youth and community members to participate and belong.
Ramadan Connect 2025 brought the community together at Markham Civic Centre, becoming part of MCC’s growing story of shared experiences and connection.
Ramadan Connect 2026 added bazaar and awards moments to that story. The Seniors in Bloom project runs from April 2026 to March 2027. Alongside these milestones, MCC’s ongoing focus includes soccer, creative learning, community gatherings and seniors engagement through Aaniin Community Hub.
Soccer and teamwork, STEM projects and crafts give children opportunities to learn alongside one another. MCC’s program offering also includes kids entrepreneurship and opportunities for youth involvement and leadership — creating space to practise skills, form friendships and participate.
