Educo Canada

Why Give to Educo Canada?

Educo Canada is the only organization that offers outdoor community leadership education to young people. We are passionate about working to remove barriers and creating opportunities for young people from diverse backgrounds to participate in our programs.

What is outdoor community leadership, and why are we different?

Through our Educo Adventure School, we focus on using the outdoors as a classroom to develop the skills and strengths that enable young people to create and participate in sustainable healthy communities. Though Educo students also learn "hard skills" such as outdoor survival etc., our programs are focussed primarily on drawing out the essential aspects of group communication, self development and interpersonal awareness.

We have been providing unique and powerful programs for the past 41 years. We engage youth from many backgrounds and we include local custom in all of our courses. Educo Adventure School is located on 160 acres in the South Cariboo region of B.C., Canada and our programs are run from our site and from various mountains and river systems around BC.

Educo is also the only non-profit organization in BC that specializes in providing youth aged 9-19 with the opportunity to access pristine wilderness and we operate the only facility in the Cariboo-Chilcotin region with a certified high ropes course and full-sized rock climbing wall.

We are a charitable, financially sustainable and non-religious organization and we have affiliate Educo organizations in South Africa, the USA, Germany and Bulgaria. "Educo School" is a registered charity with the Canada Revenue Agency: BN: 118894518RR0001.
