It’s time to show that love.

To hug our city and never let go. To shape the city that shapes us, and make it everything we want it to be. Smarter. Healthier. More inclusive. More creative. More prosperous. More Toronto. The city we all want.

It’s time to bond with Toronto.

Your Bond is a charitable tool that allows you to power your own personal giving, and at the same time fund the innovators and ideas that are making Toronto the best place to live, work, learn, and grow. Brought to you by the people who have been doing just that for more than 30 years: Toronto Foundation.

Toronto Foundation is where people like you come to fuel Toronto’s future, with a partner whose reach, knowledge, and expertise is unduplicated.

Every year, Toronto looks to our Toronto’s Vital Signs® Report to chart its progress against its most vital issues. We seek out organizations with game-changing ideas, and ignite them through the Vital Toronto Fund, our community endowment.

When major issues come to light, we connect people and lead the way to breakthrough solutions.

Solutions like our Recipe for Community, which is helping inner city residents come together and build a crucial sense of belonging. The Toronto Sport Leadership Program, which is equipping students in disadvantaged neighbourhoods with life-changing coaching skills. And Playing for Keeps, which is providing pathways for newcomers, youth, and long-time residents to become community leaders.

Those are but a handful of examples: every year, millions of dollars in grants from devoted donors and our Vital Toronto Fund energize hundreds of organizations. Your Bond for Toronto can be used to fund their ongoing success, as well as the success of the causes and organizations that have already captured your heart.

It’s essentially your own private foundation, one that supports your vision and goals.

Visionary donors. Groundbreaking solutions. Expert leadership. And an unprecedented Bond With Toronto that unites them all, to write Toronto’s next chapter. The one where, together, we build the city we all want.

A love story like no other, written by you.

Toronto is our ally, our muse, our most loyal friend. And that friendship has forged an unbreakable bond between this big-hearted city and everyone who loves it right back.

Its sounds. Its faces. Its energy.Its magical ability to be everyone’s city one minute, then yours alone the next.
