Investing in our communities

PowerFilled Youth Build a Powerful Tomorrow

The PFYTO team organizes several engagements during the year to give back to the community.

Becoming a Leader

A safe space for youth to learn and grow

Through arts, research, rehearsal, and repetition, youth learn about BIPOC history, and culture.

A Vibrant Community

Building A Brighter Future For BIPOC Youth

PowerFilled Youth TO (PFYTO) is dedicated to engaging, educating, empowering, uplifting and inspiring BIPOC children and youth.

Through mentorship, skills workshops, leadership and physical activities, dramatic arts and community outreach initiatives, children and youth develop confidence and character while learning about self-love, social justice, black history and culture and the value of positive community engagement.  

We are committed to providing a diverse, equitable, inclusive and safe space for youth to learn, grow, heal, bond and be themselves.

Our Amazing Sponsors

We’re grateful to be supported by so many leaders in our community.

Fundraising Event

BLESS THE HOMELESS

2024-2025

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who was able to  donate or support our Bless the Homeless initiative this holiday season.  On December 20th 2024, the team hit the streets of Downtown Toronto, providing those we met facing homeless with a Delicious 4 course meal including Jamaican style soup, Jerk Chicken, rice and peas, cornbread, coleslaw and dessert.  We also handed out some winter jackets and apparel and sleeping bags.  It was a bitter cold -17c that night but we had a great time giving back.  It really is better to give than receive!

We will be going back out again January 21st 2025, as we recognize that unfortunately people don’t only experience homelessness and hunger during the holidays.
