Create/Change: Toronto’s GivingTuesday Collab

Event Overview

On Tuesday, December 2 (6:30–9:30 PM), Vengeance Foundation hosts Create/Change: Toronto’s GivingTuesday Collab at Youthful Vengeance, bringing together Toronto’s arts and nonprofit communities for an evening of creativity and collective impact.

This GivingTuesday celebration raises funds to support youth-focused arts, STEM, and social innovation programs that create equitable access to education and opportunity through collaboration.

Proceeds from the evening will directly support:

• WoodGreen Community Services – Homeward Bound ProgramSupporting creative workshops for the children of single mothers participating in WoodGreen’s Homeward Bound program. Homeward Bound provides wrap-around support — including housing, education, childcare, and employment — for single mothers experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. Funds raised will enable artist-led summer workshops in art, dance, and music, offered in partnership with Toes for Dance and The Prototype.In 2025, Vengeance in Action will expand this partnership by bringing visual artists into the camp to lead hands-on art experiences for the children.
• ACCESS Charity – Bright Ideas PitchProviding micro-grants and mentorship for youth-led social impact initiatives. ACCESS empowers young changemakers in the Greater Toronto Area to develop innovative projects that drive community and social change through entrepreneurship and collaboration.
• Vengeance Foundation – Vengeance in Action & Bits & Bytes HackathonDeveloping accessible arts and STEM programs for youth and emerging artists that foster creative, technical, and leadership skills through mentorship and collaborative innovation.
• Code to InspireExpanding access to technical education for young women in Afghanistan through the country’s first coding school for girls.

WoodGreen Community Services is one of Toronto’s largest social service agencies, serving more than 40,000 people annually. Its flagship program, Homeward Bound, supports single mothers facing homelessness or housing insecurity by providing safe housing, education, childcare, and career development. The partnership with Vengeance Foundation extends this support through artist-led creative workshops that encourage self-expression, confidence, and connection for children in the program.

ACCESS Charity is a youth-founded, youth-driven organization that empowers young people to lead positive change. Its Bright Ideas Pitch initiative provides funding and mentorship for youth-led community projects across the GTA, enabling young leaders to turn innovative ideas into sustainable impact.

GivingTuesday is a global day of generosity following Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Instead of spending, communities come together to give, create, and support causes that matter.

Join us to celebrate Toronto’s creative community—and help expand access to arts education, innovation, and opportunity for youth locally and globally.
