About the Durham Catholic Children's Foundation
The Durham Catholic Children's Foundation was established to ensure that students within the Durham Catholic District School Board can attend school with the basic daily necessities of life. Through our signature fundraising events and donor contributions, the Foundation enables a formal mechanism for coordinating charitable initiatives and raises funds to support student enrichment through their participation in all aspects of school life.
The Foundation supports and actively works towards providing essential services to students and families in need. With recommendations from the Durham Catholic District School Board (DCDSB) and its school communities, children and families in need throughout Durham Region can receive financial assistance to ensure the provision of basic needs which allows students a better opportunity to reach their full potential.
