Our Appreciation

Educo Adventure School: Donate-Comminity of Heart

On each Educo summer course, we hold an Appreciation Ceremony: staff honour each student with a verbal appreciation of their character. We believe it is important to practice appreciation regularly. It brings out the best in people! And so, we appreciate our supporters – you make the extraordinary possible!

The Community of Heart represents alumni, friends of Educo, generous strangers and Educo staff who give to Educo to sustain the organization, care for the wild and beautiful land on which we run our courses and ensure that familes and students from all economic backgrounds can access Educo.

We thank all of our supporters in the Community of Heart!

van1
Our vans are our chariots to the mountains. And when we say chariot, we mean chariot: our students are on a hero’s/heroine’s journey as they head to the mountains to tackle steep hills and discover their courage, be it in sunshine or storm. These chariots are our means to the magic of the mountains.

In 2014, we set a goal to purchase a new van. The following families and individuals helped us meet that goal and in July 2014, we introduced a new Ford 15-passenger Van to our fleet (pictured above with our 2014 staff team). A big thank you to all our Van-Raisers!
