The OFC, an institution in the Melanated Community, has been assisting Melanated individuals, families, entrepreneurs and business owners for over 10 years by bridging the gap between the French and English speaking communities, and through mentorship, financial literacy, business training, networking and coaching. The OFC stands apart because it is founded on a code of conduct that unifies its members around the common goal of building a solid economic foundation for their future generation and a mutual respect for all religions, and culture. It is a Melanated-led Social Economy Enterprise, managed by an Executive Director and supporting staff. The OFC is governed by a Board of Directors and supported by an Advisory Committee. The Board of Directors contribute a wide range of expertise and first hand experience. The Advisory Committee, which consists of recognized community experts in law, finance, business administration, marketing and communications, leadership and IT, provides guidance and support.
