National Council of Jewish Women of Canada

NCJWC-Toronto has been a catalyst for engaging Jewish women in addressing the needs of the vulnerable through education and social action since it was established in 1897. In 1922, the first Council House was opened at 44 St. George Street. In 1964 NCJWC-Toronto moved to 4700 Bathurst Street where our volunteers spent 56 years working together within the Jewish and general community to effect positive change by addressing social problems. In 1984, NCJWC-Toronto Foundation was created and the Bathurst-Prince Charles Apartment Building was opened. The Bathurst-Prince Charles is an integrated fully-accessible housing project with affordable housing for seniors combined with independent accommodation for the disabled.
