About EICanada
Emmanuel International Canada (EICanada) is one of seven affiliates of Emmanuel Relief and Rehabilitation International (Emmanuel International or EI for short). EICanada is an international, interdenominational, evangelical organization that assists communities worldwide through the agency of the churches within those communities in order to meet the needs of the poor. Founded in 1975 by Rev. George Middleton as a response to the widespread suffering caused by a devastating famine in eastern Africa, EI has a proven record of commitment, care and compassion in addressing these needs.
EICanada began as an affiliate of EI on March 31, 1983 and has operated out of the International Headquarters in Stouffville, Ontario, since its inception.
The programs we implement involve working in the areas of Sustainable Development, Relief and Rehabilitation, Education, Health, Christian Outreach and more.
