ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIALS

Over 2,000 First Nations students have a certified teacher who exemplifies Gakino’amaage’s community-defined criteria to guide their learning each year because of the support from Gakino’amaage’s generous donors. Our team has honoured that trust and investment. We are pleased to share our annual report and financials below.
