Deadline: 18-Oct-2024
The Brant Community Foundation has launched the Grant Program that inspire change and make a difference.
In assessing requests, the foundation looks at organizations that show fiscal responsibility, have a committed volunteer board, represent the community they service and have the capacity to carry out the work. Applicants must demonstrate how their initiative will benefit the community and how the project will be funded beyond the grant from the Brant Community Foundation.
Grants from the Brant Community Foundation must be made to qualified donees or organizations sponsored by a qualified donee as stipulated by Canada Revenue Agency. Qualified donees are organizations that can issue official donation receipts for gifts that individuals and corporations make to them.
Preference
- Preference will be given to applications that:
- address root causes;
- fill a gap or meet a need in the community;
- support capacity building to strengthen the organization and help them fulfill their mission;
- promote collaboration and sharing among agencies to reduce duplication of services.
Funding Information
- Maximum Request Amount: $12,500
Eligibility Criteria
- The applicant organization’s Board of Directors must be based in the City of Brantford, the County of Brant, Six Nations of the Grand River and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.

- Faith-based organizations are encouraged to apply for funding that provide direct support or benefit to the wider community (for example: meal programs that are open to all members of the community).
- The Brant Community Foundation cannot make grants for projects, activities, and/or programming that are political in nature.
