We’re excited to announce that our Neighbourhood Small Grants program will open on March 14th, 2024 and take applications until April 25th, 2024
We offer a grant of up to $500 for you to bring your community project to life. With a Neighbourhood Small Grant, you join a network of thousands of project leaders across British Columbia who have taken steps to better their neighbourhoods—just like you.
Why are we doing this? Because magic happens when neighbours connect. It forms friendships, makes our communities safer and more vibrant.
