Coptic Orphans Canada
After presenting the plight of the children
in a church, we realized that many in Canada are just
as excited about helping children in Egypt as in the
US. Their great enthusiasm prompted us to register
and incorporate in Canada. In May 2001 Coptic Orphans
incorporated as a charity and was officially registered
with Revenue Canada and able to give tax receipts for
donations. In October 2002 Coptic Orphans officially
opened its Canada office.
In December 2005 the Canada office moved
to Laval, Quebec and Manal Bedwany became the director
of the Canada office. Under Manal’s leadership
and our strong partnership with the Coptic Orthodox
Church in Canada, Coptic Orphans Canada has grown tremendously.
Canadians now sponsor hundreds of children and send
Serve to Learn volunteers every summer.
