Briercrest College and Seminary

We have been preparing leaders for over 70 years. Our ministry emerged from a community of believers who valued the Word of God and wanted to provide Bible training. That commitment remains at the heart of what we do and why we exist. Our aim is to call students to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ, and our approach to reaching this goal is increasingly unique in the educational landscape. "…the Word of our God shall stand forever." Isaiah 40:8 We are situated in a close-knit community that is ideal for spiritual reflection yet offers one of the most extensively developed Christian education campuses in Canada. The centrepiece is the 2,400-seat Hildebrand Chapel; the largest church auditorium in the province. Facilities also include a 25,000-square foot library, nine student dormitories, a hotel, recently renovated dining hall, double-court gymnasium, ice rink, numerous sports fields, Subway restaurant, and two coffee shops.

WOODLAND CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL - Cambridge District Association for Christian Education

Woodland Christian High School was established in 1976 by a group of parents in the Cambridge area. They believed that it was their responsibility as parents and people of God to establish a school that in all of its programs would honour God by leading children to a deeper understanding of what it meant to serve God. They believed that the education of their children was their responsibility, not that of the government. The school opened it doors for the first time in September, 1976. For the first number of years it operated in a number of church facilities in the Cambridge and Kitchener-Waterloo areas. The move to the present facilities occurred in 1979. Considerable expansion and renovation took place in 2002. Woodland currently serves approximately 250 students in Grades nine to twelve.

CAMBRIDGE RIGHT TO LIFE

We follow the following Life Principles: Civilized society is built upon the principle of an inalienable right to life, from the moment of fertilization to natural death. The right to life is fundamental, since it is the one upon which all others depend. Therefore, society has moral duty to protect this right. The task of defending innocent human life is everyone’s responsibility, especially at a time when life is being threatened at its weakest moments in the human journey: in the womb, the wheelchair, or the hospital bed. To deny the pre-born, the infirm, those with handicaps and the elderly their fundamental right to life is morally unacceptable. We support only peaceful means to promote our message.

Shad

Since 1981, Shad Valley has perfected a great formula: identify outstanding young talent; help them develop an innovative mindset; encourage them to consider fields of study that increase innovation and economic capacity; and motivate them to make a difference. Grade 10, 11 & 12 students secure a place at Shad through a very competitive application process, and spend the month of July living in residence at a top university, surrounded by like-minded peers and inspiring mentors. Shad invests approximately $7000 per student, per year, to provide an experience that alumni describe as life-directing and life-changing. Participants pay a $3950 program fee, and many receive financial awards (scholarships for achievement and bursaries for financial need) to support their participation. Shad relies on contributions from the private and public sector, foundations, and individuals to provide this exceptional enrichment experience to hundreds of high-potential youth each summer.

Animals
Humane Canada

Since 1957, the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies (CFHS) has worked to unite and strengthen humane societies & SPCAs while advocating for the humane treatment of animals in our homes, on the farm, in the lab, and in the wild. The CFHS's member societies help animals in communities across Canada. The CFHS represents these members on issues of national importance, and provides them with information and advice to help them better serve animals in their communities. Over the decades, the CFHS has been at the forefront of efforts to reform Canada’s shamefully lax animal cruelty law, to create rules protecting farm animals from undue suffering, and to improve the treatment of animals used in research. The CFHS receives no government funding. It depends on the support of caring Canadians to continue promoting responsible pet ownership, fighting for effective laws to protect animals, and strengthening humane societies and SPCAs nationwide.
