Frontiers Foundation is a federally chartered non-profit charitable organization that has been working on community development projects in First Nations communities in the far north of Canada since 1968.
Our programme brings international groups of volunteers to small, usually isolated, First Nations communities to assist on a variety of community development projects with most of the volunteers working in community schools as tutors and teaching assistants. Our volunteers help to bring badly needed skills to the schools and often work with special needs children and children with FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome)
The volunteers are required to volunteer for the full school year, from late August and early September through to the end of June. All of the volunteer costs within Canada including travel to and from the project, food and living expenses, and medical insurance are covered. Volunteers from outside of Canada are required to cover their travel to and from Canada.
This is a truly unique opportunity to live in another culture and learn about life in the far north of Canada while also gaining practical experience working in a school. We are looking for motivated people with a strong and genuine desire to get involved in the community and in the culture.
