The Paloma Foundation is a Canadian private charitable foundation, primarily focused on assisting registered charitable organizations in the Greater Toronto Area that provide services addressing the issues of:

• women’s and children’s health, including mental health;
• women’s and children’s education;
• and homeless populations.

Funding Focus

The Paloma Foundation funds programs that address women’s and children’s health and education and issues of homelessness for the most vulnerable populations in the downtown Toronto core. Our focus is on the critical intervention programs of front-line registered charitable organizations. By playing a more active social currency role, we hope to encourage collaboration among the organizations we fund in order to enhance the impact of our resources.
