Toronto's Vital Signs Reports
The 2023 Toronto's Vital Signs Report outlines troubling patterns of social isolation, economic stress and declining mental health in Toronto, corresponding with a long-standing and persistent downward trend in civic engagement. But raising alarm bells is not enough. This year we're focusing on the problem that underlies them all—restoring the connection between us and our city. It’s time to get involved and reignite our love for Toronto.
Social Capital Studies
The Toronto Social Capital Study 2022 is the most in-depth look at social capital in the city. Released by Toronto Foundation and the Environics Institute, along with 15 partners, the report covers Torontonians' wellbeing based on their social networks, social trust, civic engagement and neighbourhoods support.
Results show who's disconnected and why that matters to city's health. Read our Toronto Social Capital Study 2022 today.
GOOD TO GIVE GUIDE
This year's Good to Give Guide is different. It features some of the smallest organizations we’ve ever funded and recommended to fundholders. Small groups know their communities and draw neighbours together to imagine and build a better future. Read the guide.
SOCIAL IMPACT INVESTING REPORT
From June 2020 to June 2021 we pooled more assets to maximize our impact. We also stepped into new territory. Read stories on our latest three investees and a reflection from chief operating officer, Denise Arsenault.
Oral Health Report
Who you are, where you live and what you earn pre-determine your access to dental coverage and oral health outcomes – more consequences of inequality in Toronto. The working poor are amongst the worst off as they fall between eligibility cracks with incomes too high to qualify for publicly funded services and too low to pay out of pocket. Read the report.
