Application for Community Grants program opens February 1

Norfolk County’s Community Grants Program will be accepting applications from February 1 to February 28, 2025. 

The program remains unchanged from last year, with a streamlined and transparent application process designed to align with Norfolk County’s Strategic Priorities: 

• Empowering Norfolk 
• Building Norfolk 
• Connecting Norfolk 
• Serving Norfolk 
• Sustaining Norfolk 

Not-for-profit organizations are encouraged to apply for funding to support projects and initiatives that contribute to these priorities. Grant approvals and funding allocations will be based on application criteria, the number of applicants, and the total funding available. For 2025, the Community Grant Program budget remains at $34,000. Funding is not guaranteed and is subject to availability. 

A selection committee will evaluate all submissions against the eligibility and evaluation criteria outlined in the program policy, with recommendations submitted to Council for final approval. 

Successful applicants will be notified via email in late April, with funding issued starting in May.
