What we do

Mission Statement:
The Michael Young Family Foundation aims to follow in the footsteps of its namesake, Michael Young, by supporting cultural, environmental, educational, and social service programs. The foundation focuses on investing in depth in a few projects at a time, reflecting Mike's unwavering compassion and enthusiasm for the positive.

Geographic Focus:
The foundation operates primarily in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It has also been involved in national initiatives through partnerships with organizations like The Nature Conservancy of Canada and the Art Gallery of Ontario. While its primary focus is local, it contributes to broader Canadian and international efforts in environmental conservation and the arts.

Program Highlights:
Key activities include funding cancer research, supporting the arts, and promoting environmental conservation. Notable partnerships include The Nature Conservancy of Canada, Kawartha Land Trust, Evergreen Brick Works, Artscape Youngplace, and the Young Center for the Performing Arts. The foundation's principal focus since 2018 has been a program with The Nature Conservancy of Canada to develop Land Trusts and regenerative farming, which has evolved into "Our Anthropocene Project." This environmentally-driven work aims to make a positive impact on the planet.
