The Angel Foundation for Learning is a registered Canadian charity and is an official charity of the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB). Through the generosity and compassion of supporters and donors, we support TCDSB students through nutritional, educational and spiritual programs.In 2015-16, The Angel Foundation for Learning served millions of nutritious breakfasts, lunches and snacks to TCDSB students, provided financial assistance to over 50,000 students and disbursed over $4,000,000 through our four wings of support: • Student Nutrition Programs: Students who have had a nutrition morning meal are ready to learn and have improved attention spans. Each day, approximately 52,000 TCDSB students in rely on Student Nutrition Programs to receive a healthy breakfast, lunch or snack. One in three TCDSB students participate in a morning meal program five days a week. Students who have had a healthy and nutritious morning meal are ready to learn and have improved attention spans.• School Allocations: Learning also happens outside the classroom and we believe all students should share these invaluable experiences. Approximately $50,000 is distributed annually through School Allocations to ensure all students can participate in class trips and activities.• Guardian Angel Funds: The Foundation raises funds to assist students who have emergency needs that are beyond their family’s means. Our students should all have equal access to warm clothing, food, hearing aids, eyeglasses, epi-pens and other necessities for life and for their education. Approximately $140,000 is distributed through eight Guardian Angel Funds on an annual basis.• Bursaries and Awards: The Angel Foundation for Learning administers a variety of awards and bursaries each year to assist students in pursuing their educational dreams. We also administer funds to allow students to experience arts and music camps and participate in choirs and instrumental bands.
