Dauphin Neighbourhood Renewal Corporation is now accepting applications for its Small Grant Fund.
Executive Director Amanda Novak says community organizations planning events or projects should consider applying for assistance through this fund.
"If it has anything to do with economic development, youth and recreation, housing and homelessness, and community connecting - anything like that, those are areas of emphasis that are very important to us at DNRC. So if you have a project that actually lines up with that, we encourage you to apply for our small grants funding."
"You can receive up to $5,000 towards your project. That has been very helpful towards a number of organizations just to get a little bit of funding going. And then they are able to use that to also acquire more funding, as they use it as leverage and then are able to do even bigger projects. So whether it is a small project or a big project, if it aligns with our values and areas of emphasis we are definitely interested in hearing from you."
Any money handed out through the Small Grant Fund must be used by March 31st, 2025.
Application forms are available through the DNRC's website, or you can contact Novak at 204-212-0047.
