Neighbourhood Small Grants
What is the Neighbourhood Small Grants Project?
The Residents Committee of Cedar Cottage, Frog Hollow and Kiwassa Neighbourhood Houses believe that all neighbourhoods can be vibrant and safe places for the people who live there. One way to strengthen neighbourhoods is to build on the capacity of residents.
The Neighbourhood Small Grants Project is funded by the Vancouver Foundation in order to support residents to initiate activities in their communities for the benefit of local people.
These activities can include carrying out physical improvements (boulevard gardens, wall murals), creating solutions to social problems (noise impact study, clean up signs), or developing new relationships (block parties, community gardens).
Grant Money of up to $500 per project may be awarded to groups of two or more residents.
Any resident who lives in the Cedar Cottage, Frog Hollow or Kiwassa neighbourhoods is invited to submit an application for a project. Deadlines for submissions is the last day of April. Decisions will be made by May 30th. See our brochure for more details and application requirements.
