Final year of the program
2020 was the final budget year for the Community Grant Program.
What do I need to apply for a community grant?
In order to successfully apply for a community grant from the Township, the organization must submit an application for grant funding before September 30th, for the following year.
Applications will be evaluated on the following criteria (in no particular order):
- Organizations operating area and mandate
- Organizations financial need
- Benefit to the community
- Proportion of community benefitting, affected, partaking, etc.
- Segment of community benefitting - emphasis on youth, seniors, disadvantaged, vulnerable populations
- Relief of Township responsibility i.e. an event, facility or program/service etc. that relieves the Township of "having" to provide it, or a scenario where "if the organization doesn't do it, the Township will have to"
The Township will review grant applications in conjunction with the budget deliberations for the upcoming year. The Township may request additional information or clarification from the organization when evaluating the request.
*Please Note - grant applications, once submitted to the Township, are public information and will be dealt with in an open, public Council meeting.
