The Aspen Foundation is back - And we're rebuilding it with purpose

We’re a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing labour education, inspiring equity-driven action, and celebrating the contributions of working people in Alberta and beyond.
After a period of dormancy, we’re renewing our commitment to meaningful, accessible education — putting tools for justice and critical thinking back in the hands of those who need them most:
Alberta’s students, and the teachers who lead and inspire them.

Something big is coming

We’re teaming up with the Alberta Labour History Institute to bring working-class stories to life through a bold new documentary and curriculum resource.

Real voices. Real history. Real stories that matter.

You won’t want to miss this!
