Education and Cultural Foundation

The Latvian National Federation in Canada (LNFC) Educational and Cultural Foundation (ECF) was registered in Ontario in 1982 as a non-for-profit charitable organization. Money for the foundation comes from individual donations, testaments and all donors receive a charitable donation receipt.
