Rozsa Foundation’s Capacity Development Funding Program in Canada

Deadline: 29-Sep-2023

Applications are now open for the Capacity Development Funding Program to support arts organizations that seek to enhance key operational processes, practices, and systems to build capacity, advance learning, and facilitate necessary change within the organization.

Funding Information

• Organizations may request up to $20,000.

Capacity Development Funding can support a range of work including, but not limited to:

• Feasibility studies
• Equity and anti-racism training and work
• Governance reviews
• Policy reviews and updates
• Financial systems upgrades
• Human resource systems
• Development of marketing plans
• Fund development assistance
• Technical resources, such as CRM upgrades

Eligibility Criteria

• Organizations must be a charity with a valid CRA charitable business number (9 digits, 2 letters, 4 digits), however:
  • Equity-deserving organizations that are not charities may be able to apply for funding in partnership with a registered charity through an agency agreement.
  • You must be an arts-focused organization or be applying for support in engaging the arts to further your mission.
  • The focus of their investment is in Calgary and the surrounding area, including Rocky View County, MD Foothills, Banff, Canmore, Drumheller, and Rosebud, as well as to provincial organizations whose initiatives will directly benefit the Calgary arts sector. Organizations located outside of these areas may still be eligible but should contact us prior to beginning the application.
  • Organizations can submit only one application per deadline.
