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. Canadians benefit directly and indirectly from nature conservation, as do people in all nations. 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.

Access Education - Guatemala Children's Fund provides funding for children to attend elementary school in the Village of La Union. La Union's children and parents are largely illiterate. The school has 800 children registered yet there are more than 2000 more children that don't attend. We are interested in empowering these children through education so they have more choices in their lives. Access Education provides the requisite uniform, books and the entrance fee. For $75.00 per year a child has the chance to be free and autonomous. Illiteracy makes everyone dependant on the few. Illiteracy is slavery. We want to change this 'One person at a time - One Village at a time.'
