Through the Jewish Foundation of Greater Toronto's Giving Fund program, we help youth develop their philanthropic vision and build their understanding of the Jewish values of tzedakah and volunteerism.
GIVE
With a minimum gift of $500, a Giving Fund can be opened at the Jewish Foundation for those under the age of 25.
GROW
That initial donation, and any additional contributions, are pooled and invested alongside hundreds of other funds to get the most out of the investments.
GRANT
A Giving Fund not only provides our youth with opportunities for regular conversations with their parents and grandparents about their charitable decisions and why they give back to the community, but also empowers them to give back to the community in a way that is meaningful to them.
A Giving Fund is the perfect gift for any occasion, including bar/bat mitzvahs, milestones, graduations, birthdays, or the holidays.
Impact in 2025
Giving Fundholders distributed $39,044 in 2025 to make a meaningful impact in the community! 85% of these Giving Fund distributions supported Jewish priorities, like subsidies for Jewish camps and schools.
