WE WILL NOT BE ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS AT THIS TIME – WE APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE
Matching funds of up to $5,000 are available for community economic development projects that would benefit our service area.
Eligible groups would be:
- Non-Profit Society
- Local Government
- Community Co-operatives
- First Nations Organizations
Individuals and Private Corporations are NOT eligible for CFPL CED Funding.
Please read the Policy Guidelines and then complete the Application for Financial Support in as much detail as possible for accurate determination of eligibility by our Board of Directors.
POLICY GUIDELINES
Applications are to be received no later than two (2) weeks prior to Regular Board meetings. For meeting dates please contact Sue at 250.782.8748.
All applications will be reviewed by the General Manager and presented to the Board for consideration. A letter from the Board will be forwarded to the applicant indicating the decision. The Board’s decision is final.
Applications received from our service area will be reviewed on their own merit and will receive a fair and equal evaluation. Please go to our website for a complete list of the communities in our service area.
Requests must be beneficial to an area (geographically) or sector (tourism, forestry, economic development, trails, etc.) and not to individuals promoting special or personal beliefs. Community Futures would encourage the following information from applicants to assist in its decision:
- Brief Description of Project
- Goals / Objective of the Project
- Benefits to the Area
- Partnerships – Who’s involved in the Project
- Financing of the project – show all assistance/cash/in-kind donations
All applications are public information and Community Futures reserves the right to review and see the final accounting of the project.
Normally an application will be a one-time consideration from the board.
