Page Title

Emmanuel International Canada is one of seven affiliates of Emmanuel Relief and Rehabilitation International (Emmanuel International or EI for short) which is an international, interdenominational, evangelical agency that assists communities worldwide through the agency of their local churches to meet the needs of the poor. Founded in 1975 by Rev. George Middleton, EI has a proven record of commitment, care and compassion in meeting these needs.

EICanada began as an affiliate on March 31, 1983 and has operated out of the International Headquarters in Stouffville, Ontario, since its inception.

As a global Christian humanitarian organization, Emmanuel International Canada exists to encourage, strengthen, and assist communities worldwide to meet the needs of the poorest of the poor in their midst, to transform lives!

We continue to have a large focus on Youth Internships and each year we send up to 15 young post-university/college students on 1 year assignments to our project countries, though we tend to focus on Malawi and Tanzania.

EICanada and its programs are:

Holistic - EICanada attends to the needs of the whole person: social, physical, emotional and spiritual.

Inclusive - EICanada meets the needs of people regardless of their race, gender, age, colour or religion.

Community Based - EICanada partners with and works through the agency of local churches within needy communities throughout the world in order to enable them to meet the specific needs of their communities.

People Centred - EICanada's staff works along side the people of the communities in which they work, bringing aid and personal care into towns, villages and homes.

Self-Reliant - EICanada's programs aim to build the self-reliance and dignity of those involved.

Grass Roots - EICanada's programs meet basic needs, using simple technology that is easy to replicate and maintain.

The programs we implement involve working in the areas of Sustainable Development, Relief and Rehabilitation, Christian Outreach and more.
