Community Foundation Grey Bruce has announced their Spring Community Grant recipients.
Thirty-seven different recipients are splitting $82,000 in grant funding. Organizations like the Bruce Peninsula Bird Observatory, the Meaford Cultural Foundation and The Women’s House Serving Bruce and Grey in Kincardine are just some of the organizations receiving a grant of up to $3,000 to support a project or program that will improve the vitality of the surrounding community.
“For the first time since 2019 we saw some truly joyful projects requesting funding. It feels like organizations are making plans and moving forward,” shared Jen Legge, Grants and Donor Relations Coordinator at CFGB.
REACH Centre Grey Bruce is another example, as they were granted funds for their “REACHing for Inclusion” program that will create a way-finding map and training to help clients navigate public transit.
“There are so many great events, parks, and services in our area. This will help break down the transportation barrier that can keep many with disabilities from being included” explained Jennifer Miller, Executive Director of the REACH Centre.
CFGB has also shared that they are accepting applications for their 2023 Capital Grant stream for 2023.
“Grey Bruce non-profits and charities can apply through our website by submitting a letter of intent before July 1st. We have $100,000 available to grant to capital projects that will contribute to an organization’s success and growth of capacity, improving community spaces, and broadening access,” said Stuart Reid, Executive Director of CFGB.
