KLEO Ottawa

KLEO Ottawa KLEO is a not for profit providing educational and humanitarian support to Karen refugees in Ottawa and disadvantaged Karen communities in north-west Thailand.

We are a 100% volunteer run organisation. KLEO provides support to Karen refugees in the Ottawa-Carleton area by creating or helping access support services and programs, operating or assisting with programs to develop language, employment and life skills. KLEO provides support to the Karen in North-West Thailand through "Jen's House", a residence for 24 Karen middle and high school students. The

residence enables students to continue their education beyond that available in mountain villages. Upon completion of Grade 12, students will have the educational requirements allowing them to proceed to post-secondary education. At the conclusion of their education, students are requested to donate one year working where their skills are most suited to benefit the Karen people
