Why support the Feed All Four Fund?
The Feed All Four Fund provides direct support to students and families in our communities who may be struggling.
Funds are accessed through the school principal and the process is fast and confidential, allowing families access to what they need, when they need it the most.
Last school year, TLDSB provided various forms of assistance, including:
Grocery gift cards (assistance with food insecurity is the most frequent request)
Gift cards for clothing, hygiene, or other essential needs
Support for students to enrol in an activity to support mental and physical wellness
Assistance with the purchase of glasses, hearing aids, or other tools to assist with learning
Through fundraisers such as this one, and the generosity of donations from staff and community partners, since December 2020, this fund has received over 600 requests for support. We continue to have an overwhelming number of families requiring support, with new requests coming in every week.
TLDSB needs your help to ensure families can continue to be supported by this fund, so participate in the online silent auction!
