Bio

The Canadian International Learning Foundation (CanILF) is a volunteer-run registered Canadian charity which provides education and develops schools in areas of the world affected by poverty, war and disease epidemics (at-risk areas). We contribute in several ways: Scholarships and Infrastructure – Awarding scholarships to students who demonstrate academic potential, community service and leadership, and providing educational equipment (such as computers or textbooks) to the schools they attend; Online Courses – Offering education (such as courses in entrepreneurship, business management or Information Technology) to students via the Internet; and Mentoring – Providing advice, instruction and practical assistance on planning and project management to the leaders of educational institutions. The Learning Foundation sponsors scholarships, purchases equipment and provides development assistance for a school in Kandahar (the Afghan-Canadian Community Center) as part of our Afghan School Project (ASP). Through the Afghan School Project, we have helped hundreds of students obtain high-paying employment that allows them to provide a living for themselves and their families while participating in the reconstruction of Afghanistan. The Learning Foundation also sponsors students and provides educational equipment for St. Paul's Kabira Adult Attention and School of Orphans (KAASO) via the Uganda Literacy and Education Program (ULEP). CanILF sponsors 50 student scholarships through KAASO's Community Empowerment Program, which provides training in business, literacy, and small-scale industry and agriculture. For further information on either project, please visit our Projects section. We need your help to provide life-changing education to those who need it most. When it costs less as little as $10 to send one of our students to school for a month, you don't have to make a big donation to make a big difference. Please Donate, and help change a life.
