Who are International Teams Canada?
Founded in 1960, International Teams Canada – a Christian charity – has continually sought to impact the field of international development in a unique way. Rather than doing the work ourselves, we seek to add velocity to the work of established leaders with a vision to transform their communities. Through our partnership with other national offices, we have programs in Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe and Canada.
We Value: The Poor, The Church, The Indigenous Leader
We Aspire To: Excellence, Measurable Performance, Stewardship
We Are Characterized By: Relationships, Innovation, Integrity
What programs do we have in Kenya?
Impact Kenya - PACE
Education is the flagship of PACE Ministries. The Educational Institutions consist of:
PACE Nursery
The Pan African Academy (PAA)
The Pan African High School (PAHS)
The Pan African School of Theology (PAST)
The goal of the schools is to instill in the students from Nursery to College, values that exceed the certificate or degree the student receives. PACE Education is about fostering personal character, competence, and skill, rather than just knowledge of theory. PACE’s education takes a holistic approach that will prepare youth for the real world. Following graduation, students will be able to confidently step into the workforce with their skills, abilities, and character which has been developed throughout their education.
"I feel normal here because I have found other people
from other nations. Everyone is so welcoming and you feel like
you are a part of them."
Robert, Male, Age 20
Impact Kenya - Shangilia
Shangilia Children’s Home (SCH) is a charitable children’s institution based in Vihiga County, Western Kenya. SCH supports children between the ages of 4-18 who have been orphaned, abandoned, neglected, and/or abused. The goal of SCH is to transform the lives of orphans, partial orphans, and other marginalized children. To meet this goal, SCH substitutes the parental role through providing emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial support - all of which support proper childhood development. SCH provides the children/youth with their basic needs, such as housing, clothing, food, formal/informal education, and a safe environment for play and development. Due to the holistic support of SCH, children will be equipped with the tools, knowledge, and emotional stability to live life with the capacity to achieve their goals after graduating high school and leaving the home.
“Shangilia is a lighthouse to the community! Shangilia is serving children, especially those who are coming from vulnerable backgrounds, and then making them into a better person.”
