Community Support
Because I am a Girl (BIAAG)
Plan International’s Because I am a Girl initiative is a social movement to unleash the power of girls and women to claim a brighter future for girls in the developing world.
When a girl is educated, nourished and protected, she shares her knowledge and skills with her family and community, and can forever change the future of a nation. It’s that powerful. It only takes ONE girl to change the world!
Free the Children (Me to We)
Young people everywhere have a right to be free from poverty, thirst, exploitation and disease. Through our holistic and sustainable international development programs in Kenya, Sierra Leone, India, Nicaragua, rural China, Ecuador and Haiti, we remove barriers to enable youth and their families to exercise those very freedoms.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children from 3 - 18 years of age with life-threatening illnesses to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy. It is the largest wish granting organization in the world, with 9 chapters in Canada, and 21 international affiliates spanning 5 continents. The Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted more than 85,000 wishes around the world since its inception in 1980.
