Toronto is experiencing a renaissance when it comes to our parks, public realm, and urban forests, and as the Parks, Forestry, and Recreation Department’s official fundraising partner, the Toronto Parks and Trees Foundation plays a critical role in engaging our communities, especially our philanthropic communities, in building, enhancing, and animating our common grounds – the parks and public spaces where we come together to build a healthy, connected city.
Leila joins a dynamic team of staff and volunteers at the Foundation who continue to deliver quality outcomes for donors, funders, and especially the City’s parks, recreational facilities and urban tree canopy. We’re excited to welcome her to the team.
