Geoffrey Canada is an advocate of advancing education to troubled, Inner-City  children. He was born in January 13, 1942 and has a Master’s Degree in  Education from Harvard Graduate School of Education. In the 1990’s Canada  started a nonprofit organization to help educate kids who were surrounded by  inner city conflicts, such as drugs, guns, and rampant homeless.

Before the futures of thousands of children began to shape, Geoffrey Canada  ”mentored” less than a hundred. Seeking to evolve his cause, Canada’s idea’s  bloomed faster than the crime and poverty could keep up. Today his  organization covers a whopping 100 city-block area.

“Osama Bin Laden is not going to come here and destroy America. Our education system is doing that just fine.”

Canada has accomplished a feat that many might have, at one point, considered impossible. With the large number of children whose lives have been touched, the accomplishments made by Geoffrey Canada are truly amazing.

Creating contributing members of society out of children that our general  public had forsaken was a task that no other had attempted. Of course, the task  was hard. To everyone’s surprise, Geoffrey Canada had much success. The  simple fact is that you can not separate a child from their hometown. The poor  social qualities and government funding surrounding poverty-stricken areas  should not negate the level of opportunity available to our nation’s youth. The origin of a child should not commit them to an online education, or even no education at all.

Though you may not have ever known who Geoffrey Canada was before today, he has been shaping our nation’s education system to promote a better world for generations to come.

Geoffrey Canada has turned the lives right-side-up for thousands of children; saving lives and building futures. The success surrounding Geoffrey Canada’s non-profit campaign is living proof that miracles do, in fact, exist.
