Community Foundation Grey Bruce invites charities and nonprofit organizations to apply for grants to support projects that benefit people and communities in Grey and Bruce Counties.

Charities and nonprofit organizations may access the new online application form and criteria at the Foundation's website: communityfoundationgreybruce.com. Applicants should contact the Foundation's Grant Coordinator, Wendy Bachiu, before applying to ensure eligibility of their project. Application deadline for spring granting is April 15.

Granting priorities are based on Community Foundation Grey Bruce's 2016 Vital Signs® report which gathered statistics on needs to be addressed in our region in the areas of health & wellness, arts and culture, education and lifelong learning, living standards, the environment, and community connections.
Applicants are required to describe how their project addresses one of the indicators of community vitality as outlined in the Vital Signs report.

Charities and nonprofits can also learn about funding opportunities with both Community Foundation Grey Bruce and several other potential funders at a Spring Granting Fair and Nonprofit Workshop on March 14 at the Royal Canadian Legion, Owen Sound. Full workshop details are available at communityfoundationgreybruce.com or by calling 519.371.7203. Cost is $20 per person with lunch included.
