The Jay and Barbara Hennick Family Foundation

The Jay and Barbara Hennick Family Foundation distributes grants to organizations across the Greater Toronto Area working in community services. The foundation provides funding to charities addressing social needs, supporting programs that strengthen neighbourhoods and improve access to services for vulnerable populations. By directing resources to vetted nonprofit organizations, the foundation helps expand capacity in areas including housing, food security, youth development, and social support. The foundation's grantmaking reflects a focus on sustainable community change rather than short-term interventions, with an emphasis on supporting established organizations with demonstrated track records.
