About us |
The Outstanding Canadian Foundation was formed by a group of community leaders, to select and honor outstanding leaders, successful professionals, and volunteers, from the Canadian communities and the visible minority groups, for their exemplary work and for their efforts in promoting diversity in Canada. The foundation’s members of the board feel strongly that Canadians, who voluntarily involve themselves in community activities to promote the welfare of others, deserve to be recognized and acknowledged. It promotes its motto of Canadians Honoring Canadians.
