Building Futures Through Purpose

The Roland Gossage Foundation (RGF) is a veteran-founded organization that empowers Canadian Armed Forces members, veterans, reservists, and their families through training and opportunities in technology, the arts, and film.

Our Mission

At the Roland Gossage Foundation, our primary focus is on improving the lives of military personnel and their families as they transition to civilian life. We are dedicated to addressing the challenges that veterans face when leaving the military and entering the civilian world. Our two unique programs, Soldiers in Tech and Soldiers in the Arts, are designed to provide veterans with opportunities to pursue new careers in the fields of Cyber Security, Web Development, Data Analytics, Data Science, and the Arts. Through dedicated instruction, wellness support, and career services, we aim to ensure that veterans have the necessary resources and guidance to succeed in their civilian careers and to overcome the difficulties of this transition.
