For Magesa, a third grader at Kiningina Primary School in Tanzania, storybooks brought more than just improved reading skills – they transformed school itself. It became a place of joy, curiosity, and discovery. A place where children want to be every single day.
Confidence and belief are the keys to achieving remarkable results. With programs like GALI, we are not just closing learning gaps — we are paving the way for a brighter, more sustainable future.
"We show students and families a world beyond what they know, one filled with knowledge, possibility, and innovation." — Yvonne, WE-CARE Foundation With our partner in Liberia, we’re transforming literacy and learning for the future. 📸: Hassan Bangura
Thank you for bringing the joy of reading to kids in countries like Tanzania! 📷 Emanuel Feruzi 2025
Our very own Program Manager, Malvern, is testing out a brand new reading anthology with his own kids here in Ottawa! This is one of 12 new anthologies of culturally relevant poems & stories that will soon land in the hands of eager students in Liberia & Sierra Leone. @CanadaDev
Congrats to @canadahelps on 25 years of impact, connecting generous Canadians with some pretty amazing causes! youtu.be/nBuLTKmDtAc?si…
Where education thrives, conflict fades. Classrooms aren’t just for learning — they’re spaces of safety, belonging, and possibility. At this year’s G7, Canada can say YES to peace by standing for every child’s right to 12 years of education. #YESfor12 #EducationForPeace
From handmade flashcards to storybooks stitched from recycled paper, these educators are proving that passion can overcome any resource constraint. Read more: ow.ly/FhSW50W9cUA
Your impact in action! Thanks to your kind support, we just distributed another 900 books to classrooms in Tanzania. These aren't just any books - they're culturally-relevant, locally-authored children's books that reflect each community's unique voice. 📷 CODE/Emanuel Feruzi
Congrats to the grantees selected for Round 2 of the TLFC Research Initiative! Dr Wisdom Agbevanu, Dr Betty Okot, Dr Justin Nfundiko, Dr Lucy Njagi, Tadesse Jaleta Jirata, Dr Belay Hagos, Dr Ezekiel Omwenga, Dr Paul Yaduma, Dr Rahila Gowon, and Dr Theodore Habimana. @CanadaDev
✍🏾 CODE has joined a coalition of 40+ organizations calling on @MarkJCarney to say #YESfor12 This June, Canada returns to the G7 stage — with the power to lead again. Let’s champion 12 years of education for every child, everywhere.
Happy Mother's Day to the extraordinary mothers and mother figures—from Canada to sub-Saharan Africa! 📸 © Hassan Bangura/CODE
Congratulations to @MarkJCarney and @liberal_party on your success in the 2025 federal election. We look forward to working with you to ensure that Canada’s role in the world reflects our shared commitment to equity, compassion, and lasting opportunity for all.
Our CEO, Janice Ciavaglia, was recently in Sierra Leone & saw firsthand the impact your support is making in the country's schools. She wanted to take a moment to pause & say thanks to the compassionate people who make this important work possible! thankyou.code.ngo/wSVELV2H
Today we celebrate how books can transform lives for girls and boys across the globe. A single story can spark imagination, fuel ambition, and build bridges to opportunity where none existed before. Happy #WorldBookDay! 📚
