Why Loran

Loran builds meaningful, positive change across Canada and beyond by empowering young people with curiosity, integrity, and the dedication to uplift their communities.

We believe that identifying such promising young people means looking beyond grades to find students with character—those who show courage by pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo; display a commitment to service that improves the lives of others; and demonstrate intrinsic leadership potential.

“Building a welcoming and supportive community has always been a passion of mine because I believe that strong communities have the power to do great good in the world. As an orientation executive, I was able to help first-years find their place in a new campus community and create memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.”

Kevin Wang (’21) (’21)
