Our Philosophy…
Zareinu was founded on the belief that every child has the right to an adapted education to help him/her become a contributing member of our community. Our purpose is to stimulate and nurture the potential of the individual. We strive to increase the confidence and independence of our students while identifying and paying close attention to their unique needs.
Zareinu promotes inclusion and acceptance by providing opportunities for supported integration. We believe that every child deserves to be included in the community. We are committed to ensuring a bright and exciting future for every child.
Campaign for the Children: Help us Build a Home
“Zareinu, a Centre of Excellence, is the voice for children with Special Need. This project represents a giant leap forward in the evolution of Zareinu.
The Board of Directors is pleased to announce the launch of a new $20-million Campaign for the Children. The new Zareinu campus will be located at 8780 Bathurst Street in York Region on property that has been graciously donated by the Serruya family. This state-of-the-art home will be full ofthe same care, compassion and expertise on which we have built our reputation.
Our goal is an ambitious but prudent one; to raise the funds necessary to build the building and ensure the long-term viability of Zareinu by establishing a substantial Endowment Fund. We are most fortunate to have several seed contributors as well as a match donor who will contribute dollar-for-dollar to the Endowment Fund.
"We welcome your participation in our exciting new Campaign and invite you to make a statement by making yourcommitment.” -Danny Gordon, Chairman of the Board
