GOING BEYOND GRANTING - TF'S SOCIAL IMPACT INVESTING
NOVEMBER 3, 2021 (4:30 - 6:00 PM)
This is where charitable giving merges with traditional investing in a new, purpose-driven paradigm. Some refer to it as producing a double bottom line where social and financial outcomes are equally valued. We call it progress.
Endowments are increasingly scrutinized for leaving money “on the sidelines.” In response, community-minded leaders and investors are finding creative ways to come together to have a shared impact – one of these is our Toronto Foundation Social Impact Investment (SII) Fund. Whether you are already a contributor to TF’s SII Fund or would like to learn more by hearing from some of our current SII investees, this event is for you!
Moderator Salima Rawji, vice president development, CreateTO and board member, Toronto Foundation will be joined by:
- Joshua Barndt, executive director, Parkdale Neighbourhood Land Trust
- Nicolas Greenfield, director of development - national programs, YMCAs of Quebec
- Paul Lacerte, founding managing partner, Raven Indigenous Capital Partners

YEAR-END WRAP-UP
DECEMBER 1, 2021 (7:00 – 9:00 PM)
Just in time for end-of-year giving, join us for our “best of” session where we’ll pull together the highlights of our learning year. You’ll hear from leaders including Sharon Avery and/or seasoned philanthropists on what’s worked for them – and even more important – what hasn’t. And we’ll send you on your way with a checklist and tip sheet to guide your giving plans, an explainer on what you have available to grant and our granting platform, Donor Central, along with a preview of next year's learning program agenda.
