Livia Stoyke Foundation
This Edmonton based foundation formed to honour Livia Stoyke. The foundation supports Women and Children's Issues, Arts, Environment, and Outdoor activities. The Foundation recently agreed to sponsor a Prenatal/Health Program, and have agreed to look at other possible projects in the future.
One! International tries to provide nutrition and medicine as needed to the families of the children in our schools. We would like to expand this provision to include teaching, immunization shots for newborns, vitamin supplements to our pregnant mothers, birth control measures, etc. Since these services are provided along with everything else by the teachers and social workers, the services are not as in depth as we would like. We have only one trained Social Worker who operates in both schools (two hours by train and Rickshaw away from each other) and no trained medical persons. The assistance from Livia Stoyke will go a long way in improving the health of our mothers and children. For more information, click here.
Grant MacEwan Community University
The Global Education Fund granted One! International with money to help bring computer literacy to the teachers, staff and students in our two schools. Computers and printers have been purchased for both schools. This is an ongoing challenge in India because of the weather which is not kind to electronic equipment. For more information, click here.
