News Release
The City of Toronto has officially unveiled this year’s Toronto For All public education campaign. An annual campaign, this year’s theme aims to foster belonging and inclusion while also combatting hate in Toronto.
“Every year, Toronto for All reminds us that our city is one of the most diverse in the world…This year’s campaign demonstrates that we have much more in common with our neighbours…we can discover the common threads that link us. These common threads help to create a more connected and caring city where everyone belongs,” Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow has said.
Community campaign
The 2025 campaign video showcases real Torontonians responding to a range of questions and the creative uses imagery such as twine and yarn to represent the threads that connect residents – showing that everyone has more in common than one might think. This edition of the Toronto For All campaign will be in market through the end of October.
Following Toronto City Council direction, City staff developed the new campaign with guidance and feedback from diverse community members through a number of consultation sessions across Toronto. This year’s campaign has also been supported by the Canadian Race Relations Foundation (CRRF).
Micro-community grants
Alongside the public education campaign, $60,000 in micro-community grants have been awarded to 12 local non-profit, and grassroots groups for community projects and events that promote inclusion and belonging. Funded projects and events are listed on the City’s Toronto For All webpage.
About Toronto For All
Now in its 16th campaign, Toronto For All partners with a range of community organizations and community members to generate dialogue among Toronto residents and to create a city that says “no” to all forms of discrimination and racism. Previous campaigns have focused on topics including antisemitism, Islamophobia, anti-Black racism, trans youth of colour and East Asian racism.
More information about the Toronto For All campaign is available on the City’s website.
