Yet, preparing students to launch into our globally-connected world – where the pace of technology change continues to accelerate – and where the job market is continually shifting – is challenging. So, ensuring a strong and vibrant education system that responds to the needs of our community is a job for the whole community, not just the education sector.

  • The Seeds of Hope Granting Program
    Thanks to the generous members of the United Church and the General Council Office, we are pleased to announce the following grants made through: The Seeds of Hope Granting Program: 57 grants were awarded through 2020 Spring round of the Seeds of Hope Granting program at the United Church of Canada Foundation totaling $395,044. Children, Youth, and Young Adult Programs From the Camping Trust Fund $1,500 to Burry Heights Camp and Retreat Centre (St. John's, NL) in support of the Outdoor Chapel Upgrading and Trail Revitalization project. This spring they aim to make their chapel more accessible by completing groundwork and removing trees. They also aim to revitalize the trail system that leads to the chapel by removing trees and filling holes to make it safer. Their goal is for the chapel to be able to be accessed safely for everybody through our intricate trail system $2,000 to Hardisty Lake United Church Camp (Forestburg, AB) in support of their Floor covering for outdoor play space project. At Hardisty Lake United Church Camp they have just received funding to build a 32 by 16 foot outdoor play space. This will enhance the camp by providing sun and rain protection for outdoor activities. They are going to install a rubber floor in this play space which will make it safer and more user friendly than the hard concrete floor. $2,000 to MacKenzie Camp Society (Armstrong, BC) in support of the MacKenzie Camp Lighting project. The MacKenzie Camp Lighting Project involved the upgrading of lighting both in the Craft Hall, a multi purpose building used for many program activities, especially during rainy days when outdoor programming is unavailable, and our kitchen/Dining Hall building.
