Sahakarini helps the poorest of the poor in developing countries to help themselves improve their quality of life. We do this by working together with project partners in the receiving country on programs in education, health, economic and community development. The emphasis is on initiatives and improvements which can become self-sustaining and will foster the development of women and girls. The name Sahakarini is a Hindi word roughly translated as “cooperation” or ‘working across.” For more about how this is reflected in our approach, read the story of the Sandals.We are also engaged in encouraging and fostering interest in and support of international development amongst Canadians.
We are grateful for the support of many donors from across Canada and the U.S. In many cases contributions are matched by grants from CIDA (Canadian International Development Agency, Gov’t of Canada) and/or the Wild Rose Foundation (Gov’t of Alberta). Sahakarini is a registered charity and issues tax creditable receipts for all gifts.
