Square Circle is a non-profit organization that strives to provide education, empowerment, and a secure haven for children and youth in underserved communities. Please provide your support today!
Our programs are based on the principles of Social Circus, aiming to enhance communication, interpersonal, artistic, and physical skills of young people in a collaborative, safe, and enjoyable environment. We employ pioneering methods to educate and instill self-assurance in individuals. By adopting an arts-based approach to education, our programs cultivate teamwork, creativity and play without any competitive or judgmental environment.
Founded in 2013 by Clarence Ford, Square Circle teaches Social Circus and other creative arts to empower youth to become directors of their own lives. We focus on youth from the age of 9 to 14 in the Greater Toronto Area. Our programs develop communication, interpersonal, artistic, and physical skills in a safe, collaborative and fun environment.
Four Pillars:
-
-
- Teach and educate youth in a new and inspiring way
- Foster personal development and enhance social skills
- Increase physical activity
- Develop personal self-expression and creativity

A Passion for Downtown Toronto
True to our roots, Square Circle is based in Regent Park. In keeping with our passion for working with city youth, and as part of our partnership with the Toronto District School Board and MLSE’s Launch Pad, our programs engage young people at dozens of schools in the downtown area.
