New Circles is a registered Charity that helps individuals and families in need with free

clothing, pre-employment skills training and settlement services.

In the past twenty years we have grown to an organization of 20 full-time staff, 130

volunteers, an annual budget of $3 Million, serving more than 30,000 clients a year. Our

impact on society has been profound. In 2025, the On-Board Program at Rotman School of

Management determined that for every $1 invested in New Circles, $8 in social and

economic value was generated. Our recent move to new, larger premises and an extensive

rebranding initiative have coincided with the launch of a new strategic plan with a bold

ambition. By 2035, our goal is to help one million individuals and families in need across

Canada. This “big, hairy and audacious” goal will require restructuring of the organization,

as well as expansion to meet needs in additional communities within the GTA, and across

the province and the country.

We are seeking a dedicated individual to help ensure the long-term financial sustainability

and fiscal responsibility of our organization, in compliance with all relevant regulations for

a federally incorporated Charity in Canada.

financial records and procedures are maintained. The Treasurer will be expected to

dedicate an average of 5 hours per month to the position and is a two-year term, that’s

renewable.
