  • We're thrilled to be a recent recipient of an Ontario Trillium Foundation Grow Grant! In the words of our Executive Director, Alfred Jean-Baptiste, “This funding will ultimately enhance our capacity to grow our catering collective while at the same time allowing us to offer much-needed training and wrap-around supports to increase the employment prospects of newcomer and immigrant women in Regent Park and surrounding neighbourhoods.” Winning this grant is a huge testament to our work, and will help us reach more and more people in the community. We couldn't be more excited! #ontariotrillium #cateringcollective #grant

  • In June, we co-hosted the Community-Based Participatory Action Research (CBPAR) Virtual Institute alongside the Ontario Council for International Cooperation (OCIC) and the Centre for Critical Development Studies (CCDS) at the University of Toronto at Scarborough (UTSC) as a part of our responsibility as founding partners of UNESCO's Knowledge for Change (K4C) Hub. Over the course of five online sessions, participants from all over the world were introduced to CBPAR principles and phases and learned how to use CBPAR observation and arts-based methods. As a whole, the program focused on encouraging participants to explore the possibilities of CBPAR in their own work. We're excited to have delivered this virtual learning opportunity in conjunction with the OCIC and the CCDS, and are so proud of all of the participants. Stay tuned for more online learning opportunities to come! unescochair-cbrsr.org/index.php/k4c-2/ #cbpar #communitybased #communitylearning

Each re-usable mask is only $5, however, if you're experiencing financial insecurity, there's a limited number of free masks that we're giving away for free.
  • In honour of our 40th anniversary, we wanted to share a special note from Sally McBeth, our longest serving staff member. "I joined the staff of East End Literacy in the late fall of 1983, along with Betsy and Liz. I worked with students and volunteers to start up East End Literacy Press. Back then, there weren’t many learning materials for adults, and what was out there didn’t reflect our learners’ lives. Our first periodical was The Writer’s Voice. Students wrote stories about their lives on themes, like health and housing. We illustrated the stories with photos. We acted out some of the most compelling stories and made small paperbacks. This was the New Start Reading Series. We took on real-life topics that no one was talking about much back then, such as child abuse, disability, violence against women, and racism. We wrote a report for the Toronto Board of Education called Community-based Literacy in an Urban Setting: A Model. They were impressed with what we were achieving. For the first time, we started to get steady, secure funding. A whole lot has happened in all the years that followed. But one thing has remained the same: we keep standing out for excellence and innovation." Thank you for your dedication throughout the years, Sally! #strongcommunitiestogether #torontostrong #communitydevelopment
