We delivered grants to nine organizations, who received a total of $770,000 for programs designed to break down barriers to employment and cultivate opportunities for communities around Toronto Pearson. From providing employment opportunities to over 1,100 individuals to job placements, mentorships, training, upskilling and more, our commitment to surrounding communities has never been stronger. The nine organizations selected include:
- Access Alliance Multicultural Health and Community Services
- Achēv
- Black Physicians Association of Ontario
- Blk Owned
- Brampton Venture Zone by TMU
- MABELLEarts
- Rexdale Women’s Centre
- Windmill Microlending
- YWCA Toronto
Thank you to all those who applied for funding. We’re looking forward to working with the above organizations to continue their positive impact in the communities we serve!
The Uplift Fund has been investing and partnering in programming to support local area residents and employers to build new skills, connections, and opportunities for meaningful careers since 2018.
