Deadline: 15-Sep-21
The Winnipeg Foundation is seeking applications for its Nourishing Potential Grants to support charitable organizations that provide nutritious food for children and youth.
Nourishing Potential Grants will be made to charitable organizations that operate after-school programs, drop-in centres, community centres, family resource centres, and early childhood education centres. School divisions and individual schools are not eligible for this grant program.
Funding Information
- The maximum grant request for this program is $10,000 and may include: food purchases, equipment (up to $3,000), and nutrition education and training (up to $1,000).
Eligibility Criteria
- Your organization must have a registered charitable number from Canada Revenue Agency to apply for a Nourishing Potential Grant. (This number is required to access the online application form.)
- You may apply for one Nourishing Potential Grant per calendar year. Organizations may apply for a Community Grant, or any special program grant, in the same year, but applications must be for different projects.
- Only registered charities are eligible for grants from The Winnipeg Foundation.
- Projects must primarily benefit children and youth from economically disadvantaged communities in Winnipeg.
- Organizations may apply for a Nourishing Potential Grant once per calendar year.
- Applying for a Nourishing Potential grant does not preclude an organization from applying for a Community Grant or other Special Program Grant, but it must be for a different project.
- Out-of-school programs are eligible; in-school programs are not eligible. School divisions may apply for out-of-school programming.
