Sure Solutions Foundation
Uplifting families as sure as the sun rises
We provide food, clothing, school supplies, and household essentials to families across the Greater Toronto Area — and ship donation barrels around the world three times a year.
Essentials that change everyday lives
Every donation goes directly to a family, a child, or a classroom that needs it.
Non-Perishable Food
Pantry staples and nutritious essentials delivered to families and shelters across the GTA.
Clothing & Footwear
Seasonal clothing for children and adults — gently used and new — sorted and distributed with care.
School Supplies
Backpacks, notebooks, and supplies so every child can show up ready to learn.
Household Essentials
Kettles, microwaves, blenders and small appliances to help families set up a home.
Toys & Toiletries

International Barrels
We ship donation barrels overseas three times a year to partner communities and schools.
Compassion you can see. Impact you can measure.
When people come together to support those in need, the impact is immeasurable. For nearly two decades, our community has turned generosity into groceries, school supplies, and hope — one family at a time.

Moments that move us forward
A glimpse at the families, volunteers, and partners that make this work possible.
A heart for families, a hand for the community.
Simone Dacosta founded Sure Solutions Foundation in 2007 with a simple conviction: no child should go without nourishment, no parent without dignity, and no neighbour without a hand to hold in hard seasons.
For nearly two decades, Simone has personally organized food drives, sorted clothing donations late into the night, packed barrels bound for communities overseas, and showed up at the doorsteps of GTA families with groceries and a warm smile. Her work is rooted in love — for children, for elders, and for the everyday families holding everything together.
"When we lift one family, we strengthen a whole community. That's the only solution I've ever known — showing up, again and again."Reach out to Simone
