THE WESTAWAY CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

The Westaway Charitable Foundation distributes grants to registered charities across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, with a focus on health, social services, education, and the arts. The foundation reviews funding proposals from nonprofits addressing community needs and provides financial support to organizations working in these priority areas. By maintaining a grantmaking process that considers local context and organizational capacity, the foundation helps strengthen the charitable sector's ability to serve residents throughout the region. The foundation operates as a public foundation, meaning it raises funds from diverse sources rather than relying on a single donor endowment.
