Hello!

Welcome to Yélodo live!

We are a community anchor and wellness + lifestyle platform, promoting good wellbeing of young adult immigrants in Manitoba. We create safe spaces through our events/programs for de-stressing, knowledge gleaning and resource sharing among immigrants. If you wish to collaborate with us or you have an event in mind, kindly reach out to us through our contact form, via email or any of our social platforms!

About Us

At Y.L, we work to create spaces through our events and programs that help young adult immigrants better navigate the stresses of relocating, and that connects them them to community.

Yélodo live was launched in 2022 with Cocktails & Bites (Now The Queen’s Circle); a roundtable ladies event to discuss navigating motherhood and sisterhood in a foreign culture. The most recent program added, The King’s Square, created an avenue for young adult immigrant men to gather in a safe space to share, gain knowledge and be encouraged by peers and matured immigrant male professionals.

We aim to be a resource for immigrants to maintain good wellbeing with our programming, and for Canadians to learn more about the diverse cultures within the province of Manitoba.

Vision

We aim to bridge generational and cultural gaps by providing innovative programs and events that promote wellbeing, unity and respect within and for immigrant communities. We hope to foster a greater awareness and appreciation for the rich cultural diversity within Manitoba and to inspire the next generation of leaders and changemakers.
