Children's Health Education and Relief International Canada

Overview

Children's Health Education and Relief International Canada, registered under the Business Registration Number 891514044RR0001, is a Canadian nonprofit organization focused on providing assistance to children in developing countries. The organization is committed to enhancing the lives of children through health education and relief programs.

Objectives

• Health: CHER Canada aims to provide children with access to medical care, integrating health services into educational settings.
• Education: The organization supports a superior educational environment, often within Christian schools, to empower children and help break the cycle of poverty.
• Relief: Emphasis is placed on nutrition support, ensuring that children receive the necessary nourishment to optimize their learning potential.

Sponsorship Program

CHER Canada operates a child sponsorship program, enabling donors to support individual children's education and well-being directly. This program not only provides educational resources but also ensures that children receive adequate nutrition, helping them to achieve their full potential.

Relationship with Seventh-day Adventist Church

CHER Canada is recognized as an official independent supporting ministry of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada (SDACC). While it operates independently, it submits annual reports to the SDACC to ensure alignment with the church's principles and values. Notably, CHER Canada does not accept tithe donations and advises that such contributions should be directed to the local church or conference.

Governance and Funding

As a registered charity, CHER Canada provides tax receipts for donations received during the calendar year. The organization has a Greatest Needs Fund to support children when current sponsors face financial difficulties, ensuring continuity of care. If a sponsored child leaves the program, donors are informed and given the opportunity to sponsor another child.

Mission and Impact

By focusing on health education and relief, CHER Canada strives to improve the quality of life for children in underprivileged regions. Through its comprehensive approach, the organization aims to empower the next generation, fostering a brighter future for those in need.
