M and J Peskin Foundation

The M and J Peskin Foundation distributes grants to charitable organizations across Toronto and the GTA that strengthen community services and support vulnerable populations. As a public foundation, it identifies and funds nonprofits working in areas such as poverty reduction, health care access, education, and social support. The foundation reviews applications from established charities and awards funding to help expand existing programs or launch new initiatives that address gaps in community services. By directing resources to vetted organizations already serving Toronto residents, the foundation amplifies the reach and effectiveness of frontline nonprofits. The foundation's grantmaking focuses on organizations with demonstrated track records and clear plans for using funds to serve their communities.
