OUR HUMBLE BEGINNINGS

Since 1983 Annie Liem had submitted numerous applications to the Non-Profit Association without any success. Liem never gave up hope and finally in 1987, she had the opportunity to meet Mayor Hazel McCallion of Mississauga. Liem seized this opportunity and zealously expressed to Mayor Hazel McCallion the dire need to build a non-profit affordable apartment for residents in Mississauga. The Mayor then introduced Annie Liem to David Culham, then Councillor of Ward 6 and also to Keith Ward, who was the Director of the Non-Profit Housing Association.

From thereon the dream to build a non-profit affordable apartment began to take shape.  In 1992 Wisma celebrated the Ground Breaking ceremony and obtained its full occupancy for the Wisma Mega Indah building in 1993. Our thanks to the late Mayor Hazel McCallion, David Culham, Keith Ward and Kaneff, the builder.
