TFS FOUNDATION
The role of the TFS Foundation is to promote
philanthropy within the TFS community. As a
registered charity, the TFS Foundation receives
all charitable donations in support of fundraising
priorities across all branches and programs. The TFS
Foundation is also responsible for the investment
and stewardship of all gifts.
President: Cathy Yanosik

Chair: Mitch Frazer
The TFS Foundation team is responsible for leading the
outreach to engage families, friends and alumni of TFS
to provide financial resources to advance the mission
of the school, while also strengthening school pride
and connections with the community.
This outreach includes leading the school's fundraising
program encompassing annual giving, major and
special gifts, donor recognition and stewardship, and
special events.
We work collaboratively with parents and our Alumni
Association to engage our community, helping to
nurture a culture of philanthropy and volunteering,
which is critical to the school's well-being.
While tuition fees cover the school's day-to-day
operating expenses, it is through the gifts the TFS
Foundation receives from our community every year
that TFS is able to enrich the educational program,
enhance facilities, provide entrance scholarships
and bursaries. It is the difference between a great
experience for our students and an extraordinary one.
Our supporters provide us with the means to deliver
an education that is unique and outstanding. The
dedication of our families, staff and volunteers enables
us to reach higher and provide the programs, spaces
and resources we need to nurture and prepare our
students to lead in and contribute to a complex world.
No matter the size of the gift, with your commitment,
our students can push further, discover more and be
ready to drive their future.
