Canada: Community Grants to Non-Profit Organizations
Deadline: 5-Oct-22
Kneehill County is inviting applications for its Community Grants to Non-Profit Organizations.

Funding under this policy is a one-time interim measure and is not to be relied on as a continuing source of revenue. Council fully expects community organizations to be self-sustaining and to develop working relationships with other contributing partners.
