The Foundation assists the Ontario Arts Council by assisting with private funding of the arts and oversees 275 endowments[3] established by individuals, foundations, corporations and arts organizations. In 2013, it had assets of $56 million[4] and disbursements of over $2.5 million[3] using a staff of two and a board of 12.[1] The foundation awards the Ruth and Sylvia Schwartz Award.[5]
