The ONE City Scholarship Fund was created by educators to support the talents and resilience of Toronto’s young people.
Our recipients have navigated disruptions and challenges with strength, self-awareness, and wisdom beyond their years. Despite the barriers they’ve faced, they have found ways to grow, lead, and thrive. In the face of deep-rooted inequities in our city, they remain hopeful, not just in words, but through action. They are carving out spaces for justice, opportunity, and connection, not only for themselves, but for their families and communities. These exceptional young people are not waiting for change; they are driving it. They are innovators, advocates, and builders of belonging. They are not just leaders of the future; they are already shaping a more equitable world today.
ONE City Scholars know that young people have a lot to offer Toronto
