CFF believes in “education for all,” by constructing schools in socially and economically deprived regions of the world. CFF stands up for the rights of children and families and creates access for them to educational opportunities. Their aim is to help people to help themselves. CFF also provides material and financial assistance to impoverished regions to improve living conditions and the way of life.

The theme of ROBIN HOOD is one of optimism and hope.  It shows the determination of a handful of well intentioned people who will do whatever it takes to help their fellow citizens,” said James Malliaros, Managing Director of myWorld Canada.  “This aligns well with CFF’s values of creating better future perspectives for people across cultural and ethnic boundaries. We are committed to supporting our local community. This is one small way for us to give back and provide a fun and positive experience.”

ROBIN HOOD is a new twist on the classic tale.  The action adventure movie stars Taron Egerton (Kingsman), Jamie Foxx (Django Unchained), Ben Mendelsohn (Darkest Hour), Eve Hewson (Papillon) and Jamie Dornan (Fifty Shades of Grey).  It opens in theatres across Canada on November 21st and will be distributed by Entertainment One.
