The Ottawa Network for Education (ONFE) facilitates dialogue and action to support public education in our community. We also help to channel financial resources, in-kind donations and meaningful volunteer contributions to where they can do the most good within our local education system.

Working together with our partners in education, government, business and the community, ONFE has played a lead role in developing over forty innovative education programs since its inception in 1985. Given such a long track record of success, our partners trust our ability to effectively meet their needs with sensitivity and respect.
