We are Community Spirit Foundation

We work in partnership with remote First Nations communities to ensure their young people have the best outcomes and opportunities through education and lifelong learning.

The Community Spirit Foundation's programs broaden horizons and support First Nations students to experience their full potential in school.

The Foundation acknowledges the strength and wisdom that lies within remote First Nations communities. Our work demands strong and trusting partnerships with community, elders and school leaders. We partner with communities for the long haul, as we journey through the complexities of the work required to create social change.
