About EGRC

Educating Girls of Rural China (EGRC) is a registered Canadian charity. Established in 2005, EGRC became legalized in China in 2017.
 
EGRC’s belief is educated women have educated children. The mission is to provide financial sponsorship to young women from rural regions of Western China to receive high school and university education. EGRC provides further opportunities to these women who have potential to become the future female leaders that China and the world needs.
 
Thanks to EGRC’s generous supporters, over 12 years hundreds of young women’s lives have been changed: their families have been lifted out of poverty and their children will be educated too. This is the power of educating women!
