Our Impact
Celebrating 10 Years of Strengthening Education for Generations to Come
Since 2015, Gakino’amaage: Teach For Canada has partnered with First Nations across Northern Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and Saskatchewan to strengthen education through community-led initiatives and collaboration. As we mark our 10-Year Anniversary in 2025, we honour a decade of shared learning, collective impact, and forward-looking partnership with First Nations, educators, and supporters.
A Decade in Numbers
Educator Preparation and Retention
“In 2025, we celebrate 10 years of dedicated service by staff, teachers, and partners; a decade of impact that has touched thousands of lives across the North. And this is only the beginning. Gakino’amaage will continue to grow, rooted in relationships and led by the voices of communities.”
ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIALS
At Gakino’amaage, we believe transparency is foundational to a respectful partnership with First Nations, donors, and supporters. Each year, more than 2,000 First Nations students learn from certified teachers who exemplify Gakino’amaage’s community-defined criteria, made possible through the trust and generosity of our donors and partners.
We are committed to stewarding that investment with care and accountability. Our annual reports and financial statements are publicly available so community members, partners, and supporters can learn more about our work and how funds are invested to strengthen education in the First Nations we serve.
Additional details on our annual revenue, expenses, compensation, and other information can be found through our CRA Charity Listing.
WHAT WE'VE LEARNED WITH PARTNER FIRST NATIONS
Gakino’amaage has co-developed a Research and Evaluation Framework by working in collaboration with partner First Nations to prove and improve upon the collective impact of our work while supporting the right to sovereignty over educational research.
