Creating Opportunity

The same opportunity can look different through the eyes of someone facing barriers. The Barzilai Foundation seeks to remove those barriers, allowing individuals to take control of their life and develop their own future.

Our programs have reached individuals and families who are rebuilding their lives, high potential students overcoming adversity, and low-income households trying to provide a pathway to success for their children.

Our impacts have included families achieving financial independence and leaving welfare support, homeless individuals obtaining employment and a place to live, and high potential students being able to pursue further education and a better future.

The opportunities we create are primarily through our work in Access to Education and Vocational Training. Learn more about our work supporting individuals, families and communities.

Providing Support

We provide a temporary defence for individuals at risk of being overwhelmed by circumstances that threaten their well-being or independence.

Our programs have reached individuals struggling with challenges such as illness, bereavement, loss of income, poverty, and human trafficking.

Our support work primarily falls under our Access to healthcare and grant work. Learn more about our work supporting individuals, families and communities.

This job has changed my life. It has not only changed the life for my three kids and my mom but has also changed me. It has given me self-esteem, and confidence. I feel so good knowing that I am not just helping my family but also helping others in my work with EV.”

This job is not only letting me stand on my own two feet and lead a better life for me and my family, but also to support others through their hardships and remind them that there is support out there. I want to be part of other people’s journey.”

I want to say thank you to the EV Foundation and The Barzilai foundation for helping me when I needed it the most, for helping me when I thought I had no one. I am so thankful for everything they have done and continue to do for me. It has been a great impact in my life.”

I am so happy to have my job but not having care for my 6-year-old son caused me so much anxiety, I was even considering leaving my job. I was trying to find anything that might allow me to keep working and not leave him alone. When this support came through I was over the moon. This has given me and my family peace of mind. Thank you.”
