Mission

cbm Canada is motivated by God's love to break the cycle of poverty and disability. We work together with Canadians, international Partners and our clients - those we serve - to set people free for life.

Vision

By 2012, we will be one of the top ten providers of non-government international aid, and the leading Canadian voice for people with disabilities in the poorest communities of the world. We will be known as a learning organization, committed to excellence in all areas of our work, and an organization clearly driven by servant-leadership principles.
