THE HARWEG FOUNDATION

The Harweg Foundation distributes grants to nonprofits across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area that strengthen communities through social services. The foundation focuses on funding organizations that address gaps in support for vulnerable populations, including seniors, families in crisis, and people experiencing homelessness. By providing financial resources to vetted charities, the foundation helps expand existing programs and launch new initiatives that deliver practical assistance where it's most needed. The foundation's grant-making process evaluates applicants based on their track record, operational capacity, and ability to reach those facing the greatest hardship.
