Justice Fund Toronto, Tim Hortons combine in support of Black, indigenous youth

Duncan Fulton is Chief Corporate Officer

Tim Hortons Foundation Camps (Tims Camps) announced a multi-year, multi-million-dollar partnership with Noah “40” Shebib’s Justice Fund Toronto, focused on supporting underserved youth in Toronto. The partnership will enable the two not-for-profit, charitable organizations to provide structured opportunities for Black, Indigenous and youth of colour in under-resourced communities to flourish.

Justice Fund is dedicated to the social and economic wellbeing of communities within the GTA. It is concerned with the ongoing violence in Toronto’ being a particular challenge to youth who experience poverty because they are impacted more by this violence than any other demographic. The Justice Fund is committed to building safer communities by providing flexible, long-term support and advocacy for communities in conflict with the law, and to the community groups that serve them. The belief is that when provided with opportunities to thrive, under-resourced communities become less violent, thus breaking the cycle of conflict.

Tim Hortons Foundation Camps is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1974 to expand the horizon of what is possible for young people. A leader in youth development programming, Tims Camps support youth from low-income homes between the ages of 12 to 16. Through a multi-year, camp-based program, youth learn skills like leadership, resilience and responsibility, which empower them to achieve their potential. More than 300,000 kids have attended a Foundation camp at no cost to them or their families.  Duncan Fulton is Chief Corporate Officer, Tim Hortons and Chair of the Tim Hortons Foundation Camps
