About Toronto International Festival of Authors
The Toronto International Festival of Authors (TIFA) inspires and connects through the art of stories, offering book lovers a breadth of bold, ambitious and accessible literary experiences.
For over 40 years, TIFA has presented an annual 11-day festival celebration, bringing together readers and writers from all over the globe to Harbourfront Centre every fall, to explore and celebrate the joy of stories.
About Toronto Foundation
Almost 40 years ago Fraser Deacon set up Toronto Foundation – a registered charity and now one of over 190 community foundations across the country. We’re on the younger side, considering the community foundation movement is close to 100 years old in Canada. In the last few years we’ve prioritized our work on the principles of the new philanthropy to help shift power and funding imbalances in our city.
