Teachers' Charity Trust Fund
The Charity Trust Fund is a fund of money assembled through the voluntary charitable donations of teachers who agree to contribute 1/2 or 1% of salary (approximately $37/month) through payroll deductions. These funds are disbursed annually under the supervision of the Local's Donations Committee. A donation form is available here.
You can now make a monthly or one-time donation directly to the Fund through Canadahelps.org!
