Welcome to the Maple Leaf Foundation (MLF) home page. The MLF is a not-for-profit organization, dedicated to the advancement of understanding between Canada and the United States of America. We accomplish this through the annual MLF student exchange. The student exchange matches a US based, inner city, public high school, with a counter-part high school in Canada. For almost 30 years, since its inception, over 400 students have benefited from this once in a lifetime experience.
