How To Give
TO BE SUCCESSFUL, WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
The Youth Challenge Fund brings together government and privately-matched funds in a common purpose: to improve opportunities for Toronto's young people, particularly in poorly served neighbourhoods in the city's suburban areas. Your donation will support funding great ideas and initiatives of all kinds - big and small, new and innovative, as well as pre-existing initiatives that have proven to be successful.

BUILDING GREAT IDEAS
Support the development of groups with good ideas. Money will be used to design a program, develop partnerships or coalitions, write a proposal, create a workplan and budget, or do similar developmental work. Once the idea is ready, the group can apply for a grant to get it up and running.
