Our logo blends past and present.
At its center is Bugu-Ene (Mother Deer), a sacred figure
in Kyrgyz culture symbolizing protection,
wisdom, and resilience.
Maple leaves and the Rocky Mountains,
symbols of Alberta and Canada, honor the land
that has welcomed us.
Traditional ornaments reflect our nomadic
heritage and its protective symbols.
