City of Richmond grants awarded
Published 2:23 PST, Fri February 16, 2018
The city of Richmond announced today the
awarding of more than $857,200 as 64 individual grants to local and regional
organizations. The annual community grants program provides support, in
addition to a group’s main funding.
The sources of the funds are varied,
according to city spokesperson, Kim Decker, “Child care grants are funded from
developer contributions while health, social, and safety services; arts and
culture; and, parks, recreation and community events are included in grants
funded by gaming revenue,” as she also delineates the four main grant
categories.
For organizations interested in applying for
this funding in the fall of 2018, please see richmond.ca/citygrants to discover eligibility rules and an
online application form. Some grants are for more than one year.
“As Richmond’s population continues to
thrive, so does the demand for valuable programs that make positive impacts on
our community,” says Mayor Malcolm Brodie. “Our grants program supports and
provides additional funding to organizations that offer many important services
in Richmond.”
