Welcome to the Maple Leaf Foundation (MLF) home page. Started in 1982 by Bobby Orr and Kenneth R. Rossano, 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 and various scholarship programs. The student exchange matches a US based, inner city, public high school, with a counter-part high school in Canada. The scholarships enable Canadian students to spend a semester in a US based university and an American student to do the same in Canada. For almost 30 years, since its inception, over 400 students have benefited from this once in a lifetime experience.
