The Charity
We have chosen to support the Daily Bread Food Bank in Toronto as our charity of choice for the Wellness Together event due to its unwavering commitment to alleviating hunger and reducing food insecurity in our community. The Daily Bread Food Bank's comprehensive approach, encompassing food distribution, advocacy, and research, aligns perfectly with our event's mission to promote holistic well-being and social responsibility. By partnering with an organization that directly impacts the lives of those in need, we not only extend our reach to support vulnerable populations but also underscore our dedication to fostering a healthier, more equitable society. This collaboration reflects our core values and reinforces our collective effort to make a tangible difference in the lives of Toronto residents.

The Park Memorial
In 1783, Lieutenant Governor John Graves Simcoe created Toronto’s first European cemetery. Simcoe’s infant daughter, Katherine, succumbed to fever in 1793 and was one of the first to be buried here. The final burial occurred in 1864, when the cemetery was full. The site was subsequently converted into public space known as Victoria Memor
In 1783, Lieutenant Governor John Graves Simcoe created Toronto’s first European cemetery. Simcoe’s infant daughter, Katherine, succumbed to fever in 1793 and was one of the first to be buried here. The final burial occurred in 1864, when the cemetery was full. The site was subsequently converted into public space known as Victoria Memorial Square and has been maintained by the City of Toronto as a public park since the 1880s.
In the late 2000s, several heritage features were added as part of a park improvement project. Features that exist in the park today include a narrow rectangular granite border on the lawn, which represents the footprint of the cemetery that contains approximately 400 burial sites and 17 of the original grave markers on the east side of the park.
