How It Works
Kantiono Foundation is a canadian non for profit organization, born from a dream—a vision carried by Rose Kantiono, that became reality thanks to the key contributions of two passionate changemakers: Amadou Kienou and Elizabeth Ikundi. Together they shared the same vision to uplift students and educators from underserved and marginalized communities in Canada and Africa, with a focus on Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Cameroon, and the Central African Republic through education, cultural pride, and community support.
The foundation provides scholarships, mentorship, and resources, celebrating diaspora-led change and rallying communities through events like the Special Night of Gratitude in Mississauga.
We empower learners by providing resources, mentorship, scholarships, and academic awards that break barriers to education. Through collaboration with educators, communities, and partners, we strive to nurture wellness, academic excellence, foster leadership, and create pathways for lifelong learning—ensuring every child has the chance to thrive and contribute meaningfully to society. In Africa, alongside student empowerment, we advance teacher development by providing resources and support, enabling educators to create engaging and effective learning environments and also recognizing their leadership.
