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.

“Loran alumni in particular have been one of the most quietly powerful aspects of the program. They constantly remind me that our stories aren’t linear and encourage me to pursue my potential with intention and curiosity.”

Ridhwanlai Badmos (’23)
