Frontier College / Collège Frontière

As Canada's original literacy organization, Frontier College has been recruiting dedicated volunteers to work with Canadian children, youth and adults from all over Canada since 1899. Our history is rich with stories of Labourer-Teachers working alongside their fellow labourers in mines, lumber camps, railway camps and other remote locations. These Labourer-Teachers worked day and night to help Canada's first newcomers adjust to this wonderful country. Today, we recruit and train volunteers to work with children, youth and adults in a wide variety of settings from coast-to-coast-to-coast. We also help community-based organizations set up and run literacy programs for their participants. Millions of learners have benefited from our programs.
