HOW YOUR CONTRIBUTION HELPS:
One in three children in Toronto lives in poverty. The Toronto Foundation for Student Success helps hundreds of thousands of children in need, but we can‘t do it alone. Financial support from community partners in the public and private sectors is what keeps Toronto’s most vulnerable children on track for a bright future. Your donation will put a meal on a hungry child’s plate or give a teenager a winter coat. It will also open a spot for a middle school student in an after-school program and put glasses on a child who can’t see the chalkboard.
Testimonials:
“After receiving his new glasses, one student hurried to the end of the hall and began reading our school name and slogan again and again, stopping, laughing and reading it out loud several times over. I wiped away my tears as I watched the joy that this student could not contain.”
A Grade 12 teacher became aware that one of her students had recently left an abusive home and was staying in a shelter. The teacher applied to the Emergency Fund to get her grocery cards for food and a bus pass so that she didn’t have to worry about getting money for food or getting to school. The teacher reported that the student passed all her courses and is doing very well.
