As summer slowly starts to come to an end, that usually only means one thing: back-to-school.

TCBC Winter Coat Drive 2019 – 2020

Every year, The Children’s Breakfast Clubs host a Winter Coat Drive in support of children and families who do not have adequate winter clothing. We believe it is crucial that children have access to warm winter clothing so that they can enjoy the outdoors during frigid weather and remain healthy and safe. Children who are not dressed appropriately for the winter season are often more susceptible to illness which can result in them missing school. It is our goal to ensure that no child in Ontario is...

A few years ago when we initially heard that the population of Monarch Butterflies had decreased in a significant way, we knew we wanted to make a difference in any way we could. Members of our organization started spreading the word by sending Milkweed seeds to several of our corporate and personal supporters as a means of spreading awareness while encouraging them to take action. We took the initiative to get our children involved by hosting a day at Casa Loma...
