The County of Middlesex in partnership with the London & Middlesex Local Immigration Partnership (LMLIP), is calling for nominations for the 2025 I Am Middlesex campaign.
Middlesex County is becoming an increasingly diverse and welcoming community, with people from around the world choosing to make it their home. Newcomers bring with them unique experiences, perspectives, and talents that help shape and enrich the social and cultural fabric of our communities.
The I Am Middlesex campaign is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate immigrants who are making a meaningful impact in Middlesex County — whether through leadership, volunteerism, community building, education, business, or cultural contributions.
Do you know an immigrant living in Middlesex County whose story deserves to be shared and celebrated?
Nominate them for this year’s campaign!
By sharing their stories, we shine a light on the strength, diversity, and vibrancy newcomers bring to our community every day.
