Ian + Janine Maxwell

Co-Founders, CEO & COO | Heart for Africa (Canada)

At the age of 24, Janine Maxwell founded what would become one of the most successful marketing companies in Canada. On 9/11 she found herself a part of thousands fleeing New York City. This life-changing event sent Janine on a search for the meaning of life. Her journey took her to Africa where she encountered the AIDS pandemic, hunger and disease. Together, Janine and her husband, Ian, co-founded Heart for Africa (Canada).

In 2009, the non-profit purchased 2,500-acres of land and called it Project Canaan in Eswatini, Africa. In 2012, Ian and Janine moved to Project Canaan where they have lived since sharing HOPE throughout the country.
