Donor Spotlights
The Paul Barber Foundation was founded by my father, whose curiosity and lifelong passion for learning led him to build a successful tech company. I often wonder how different his path might have been without the scholarships that allowed him to enroll in prestigious schools. Education is where it all begins—and every child deserves the support to pursue their potential.
— Thea Barber, President, Paul Barber Foundation
At the Azrieli Foundation, we believe that education is the greatest accelerator of success and this aligns perfectly with Pathways’ mandate to create positive change by addressing systemic barriers to education. We are proud to support this impactful and empowering initiative.
— Naomi Azrieli, Chair & CEO, Azrieli Foundation
What resonates with me deeply about Pathways is its holistic long-term approach to provide individualized support to students in need. As a second-language teacher, I’ve witnessed firsthand the various challenges that students can face in an academic setting. Programs like Pathways provide much needed academic and social support for these students who would otherwise be left out.
— Myriam Legault, Educator, B.Ed, M.Ed, D.E.A.
