Making lasting first Impressions

At Best Foot Forward Professional Services (BFF), our mission is to empower and uplift the diverse talent of the Greater Toronto Area, with a special commitment to BIPOC individuals, newcomers to Canada, and disadvantaged youth, including those living with disabilities. Established in 2021, BFF is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing the training and support needed to help individuals establish a strong professional identity. We believe that by giving everyone the tools and resources they need, we can create opportunities for employment and career growth that might otherwise remain out of reach.

Our vision is to create a more inclusive and prosperous GTA, where all members of our community have the opportunity to put their "best foot forward" in their professional journeys. We envision a future where youth, recent graduates (ages 15 - 29), and job seekers of all backgrounds are equipped with the skills and confidence to navigate the evolving job market. By focusing on BIPOC, newcomers, and disadvantaged youth, we aim to bridge the gap in employment opportunities and support their successful integration into the workforce.

Partner with us to support and empower youth

In the community, we partner with organizations supporting youth across the GTA, and in communities who face particularly high barriers to personal, social and economic success.

We work with local organizations to host events and workshops centered on empowering youth and advocating for the development of professional skills. The event or workshop can be tailored to the organization’s goals and objectives, or customized for a group experience.
