Acorn Seed Foundation

The Acorn Seed Foundation provides funding and support to grassroots organizations working in community services across the Greater Toronto Area. The foundation identifies emerging nonprofits that address gaps in local social infrastructure, from food security to housing assistance to mental health services, and provides them with grants and capacity-building resources to expand their reach. By focusing on smaller organizations in their early stages, Acorn Seed helps establish sustainable programs that serve vulnerable populations in North York and surrounding neighborhoods. The foundation operates as a public foundation, welcoming donations from individuals and corporations who want to strengthen the community infrastructure that supports people facing hardship.
