About Greater Toronto Kurdish House

The Greater Toronto Kurdish House (GTKH) is a dedicated nonprofit organization based in Scarborough, ON, committed to preserving Kurdish culture while fostering meaningful connections across the Greater Toronto Area. Since its establishment in 2005, GTKH has served as a vital cultural and community hub, offering a diverse range of programming designed to celebrate Kurdish heritage and promote intercultural understanding. The organization hosts signature annual events including Kurdish New Year celebrations, Kurdish Heritage Festivals, and commemorative observances such as Halabja and Anfal remembrances. Throughout the year, GTKH provides engaging cultural experiences featuring Kurdish dance performances, food contests, talent shows, and interfaith dialogue opportunities that bring together members of the Kurdish community with multicultural groups across the GTA. As an independent and nonpartisan organization, GTKH operates with a commitment to serving people regardless of political, religious, or regional backgrounds. The organization actively addresses local education and health issues while creating supportive spaces for community members to gather, learn, and celebrate their shared heritage. GTKH continues to expand its service offerings to better meet the evolving needs of the community, with particular focus on developing programs and resources tailored for youth, seniors, and individuals with disabilities. By combining cultural preservation with community engagement, GTKH remains a cornerstone organization for Kurdish cultural expression and multicultural bridge-building in Scarborough and throughout the Greater Toronto Area.
