We're the Atkinson Foundation.

We’re a Canadian charitable foundation committed to social and economic justice. Racial justice is the heart of our mission. Strengthening movements for decent work and a fair economy is our highest priority. We advocate alongside community organizers, policy innovators and other shareholders for greater income, wealth and democratic equality in Ontario. Learn more about us here.


We’re an advocate, investor, and funder. Our partners and collaborators stand up for workers’ rights, and for public and corporate policy changes that make Ontario a more equitable and prosperous province for everyone. Learn more about who and what we support here.

You can find out what we’ve been doing and learning by reading our blog — Atkinson Field Notes. From time to time, Chief Executive Officer Colette Murphy and her team  post news, presentations, and reflections here
