Role in the Funding Ecosystem
Sewa Canada International acts as a discretionary charitable foundation that raises funds from donors and allocates them to humanitarian projects worldwide. As a registered Canadian charity, it functions as both a fundraiser and a direct funder of development initiatives in collaboration with trusted local partners.
Funding Areas
The organization focuses on four main sectors: disaster relief (emergency response to floods, wildfires, earthquakes), health (medical equipment, NICU/MICU support, healthcare access), education (sponsoring children, school infrastructure, vocational training), and social development (women empowerment, community development, tribal support).
Geographic Reach
Projects are implemented across multiple countries including Canada (domestic food security and community programs), India (Kerala, Punjab, Maharashtra, Attappady tribal communities), Nepal (youth employment, healthcare), Kenya (hunger relief), Jamaica (hurricane relief), and Türkiye (earthquake relief).
Operational Model
Sewa Canada partners with trusted local organizations and conducts on-site audits to ensure impact. The organization maintains a 96% project efficiency ratio, meaning 96% of funds go directly to projects. It collaborates with agents on the ground to identify needs and implement programs.
