Access to disability grants can make a meaningful difference for individuals facing financial barriers due to physical or cognitive disabilities. The WorkAid Fund: Disability Grant was created to provide practical, one-time financial support to Ontarians living with disabilities, helping ease everyday challenges and promote independence, dignity, and stability.
As part of our ongoing commitment to injured workers and Ontarians with disabilities, WorkAid.ca is proud to launch the WorkAid Fund: Disability Grant, a financial assistance program inspired by the legacy of Angelo Procopio.

In honour of his resilience and commitment to justice, the WorkAid Disability Grant provides one-time financial support to individuals living with a disability, helping them overcome the practical challenges that can accompany daily life.

Angelo is truly an extraordinary person. I feel incredibly lucky to have met him. He stands out not only for his helpfulness but also for the dedication and professionalism he brings to his work. In every situation, he has been someone I can rely on, who guides and supports me. Working with him is not just a professional relationship; it’s an inspiring experience. Knowing someone like him has added immense value to my life, and I am deeply grateful.

I received every penny owed to me with back pay from WSIB due to the appeal the paralegal did for me. I would never have received this money without the superior professional services of the WorkAid team. I highly recommend their services to any worker.
