We aim to assist the impoverished people in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh through literacy programs, proper sanitation, and practical skills to learn how to survive better and maintain a healthier lifestyle
There are 11 tribal groups in the Chittagong area. We are actively working with family members living within six of these groups with the hopes of expanding to the remaining five tribes. Our focus is to further their education and provide a better quality of life.
We have led and or funded over 5 different leadership conferences in the last number of years in order to equip the leaders of the community to better understand and help their people.
We have raised over $80,000 for the high school project. Hoping to raise another 14,000 for five key projects (beds for dormitories, desks for classrooms, 4 toilets, 2 bathing rooms, and some retaining walls.
The main initiative of CLAP is to come alongside willing participants in programs that will lead to a sustainable future; providing training and education in order to generate funds for their families, villages, and the CLAP programs.
Canadian Leadership Assisance Program (CLAP) is set-up to provide the basic life needs for orphans, half-orphans, and impoverished children through education, skills training, food, and basic necessities of life. We are giving these children equal opportunity to achieve health and happiness in life and the ability to dream for a better future.
Canadian Leadership Assistance Program received notice in 2018, that a private donor provided funds for the purchase of 5 acres of land in order to house a high school and training centre. Once complete, the facilities will include classrooms and dormitories for high school students; kitchen accommodations; a trades training center (sewing, carpentry, agriculture); an admin office, as well guest quarters for visitors. By providing the opportunity for further education and skills training, we hope to give the youth the ability to sustain a quality of life for both their families and their villages.
