The International Conservation Fund of Canada (ICFC) is the first Canadian non-governmental organization to focus solely on conserving nature in the tropics and other priority areas worldwide. Now with programs in eight countries, ICFC works with experienced local partners to carry out carefully chosen projects and programs.

As an affluent country, Canada can do more to supply much needed funding for conservation in less developed countries. We appreciate your interest and support. Together, Canadians can make a positive difference.

Working with local grassroots charities and NGOs in 13 countries across the globe, the Global Vision International (GVI) Charitable Trust manages and raises funds for numerous long-term programs.

We do this through education, nutrition, conservation and capacity building. Our work focuses upon 3 key objectives: awareness, impact and empowerment. The aim is to create awareness of global issues, have a direct impact on those issues locally and empower our alumni, be they volunteers, donors, staff or community members, to continue impacting local issues on a global level.

VIFF is among the top five film festivals in North America, with 150,000 admissions and 380 films from 75 countries. The 16-day festival is a microcosm of its home city: cosmopolitan, friendly, culturally complex, laid-back and accessible. VIFF’s slogan is “Same Planet. Different Worlds.” Films are exhibited within 10 main programming strands. Three of these are pillars of the festival and help make it unique: the major Nonfiction Features section (42% of the 232 feature-length films screened in 2009 were docs); the popular Canadian Images program makes VIFF the biggest showcase of Canadian film in the world; and the Dragons & Tigers: The Cinemas of East Asia program is the largest exhibition of East Asian film outside that region.

Have you been PuShed? Quite simply, PuSh is about pushing artistic boundaries. It's about finding that line that some might be afraid to cross and crossing it anyway. And in so doing, we not only have the opportunity to engage our audiences, but perhaps even enter into something together that expands our horizons. Ultimately, to be PuShed is to be moved, just a little bit more... to laughter, to tears, even to anger. But the result is a shared, transformative experience. It is what we believe the performing arts are here to do. And it is our greatest wish to cross that line together with you.
