We’re proud to highlight Eclectic Café, a local employer that has grown alongside the Pathways to Employment program.

Through Pathways to Employment, young team members have gained hands-on experience, built confidence, and received mentorship in a creative and collaborative workplace.

For Eclectic Café, the program has been a true win-win, supporting both small business growth and the next generation of local talent.

What an inspiring experience listening to entrepreneurs pitch their business through the EmpowerHER program with the Henry Bernick Entrepreneurship Centre.

Each pitch was flled with passion, creativity, and confidence, and it was such a privilege to hear the stories, ideas, and vision behind each business.

Thank you Henry Bernick Entrepreneurship Centre for creating such a supportive space for entrepreneurs to learn, grow, and share their work.
