Community groups in Toronto's priority neighbourhoods are getting a great deal on activity space this summer. In 77 Toronto District School Board (TDSB) locations, it will be absolutely free.
Part of the Priority Schools Initiative, the TDSB is encouraging not-for-profit agencies offering community programming to make use of gymnasiums and green space free of charge during the summer months.Schools are available seven days a week, between July 5 and Aug. 20, but interested parties must register with the board by April 1. While any group can apply, priority will be given to not-for-profit organizations offering free programs for youth.For details on how to apply and view a full list of participating locations, visit www.tdsb.on.ca/community/useofschools/psi or contact the administrators listed below.
