AdoptWalk 2013 Partners
The ACC is pleased to introduce our 2013 partner:
Children's Bridge Foundation
The Children’s Bridge Foundation (CBF) is an Ottawa-based charity dedicated to supporting health and education programs for orphaned and abandoned children in the developing world. Started in 2003 by a group of adoptive parents, CBF is run by volunteers who have a passionate desire to help improve the lives of children who have so little and deserve so much more.
The CBF mandate is to partner with efficient and accountable organizations in the developing world to assist them in offering orphaned and abandoned children healthcare and educational programs in the following areas:
- Providing medical support (including the treatment of HIV) and nutritional programs;
- Providing surgeries and rehabilitation programs for older orphaned children with special medical needs;
- Providing teachers to support education and learning.
The Foundation is a non-governmental organization that has no religious or political affiliation. Over the years, the Foundation has helped support children in China, Vietnam, Ethiopia, Nepal, Kazakhstan and South Africa. This year, Children’s Bridge Foundation is focusing on projects in Asia and Africa.
We welcome you to learn more about the Foundation’s current programs in China and South Africa. If you would like to assist the Children’s Bridge Foundation in giving children the opportunity for a brighter future, find out how to donate here.
