Grants for Community Projects and Tourism Initiatives

Funding opportunities will be available soon through the following two funding streams.

The Community Impact Grant Program (CIGP) provides funds up to $ 20,000 to not for profit community groups for projects, equipment upgrades, community or neighbourhood-based events or initiatives that require funding to make them a reality.

The Tourism Events Grant Program (TEGP) supports new or existing events, activities and projects up to $20,000.

Both grant programs provide four funding rounds per year with first-round applications open from 1 October and closing 12 November 2020.
