Eligible programs and services 

Grants can support a community and not-for-profit organization’s expenses, including special projects and events (e.g. hosting a workshop or producing resource material); operating costs (e.g. ongoing operating costs such as rent, utilities, fixed costs); projects (e.g. a program to serve a particular group); or capital costs (e.g. purchase of office equipment).

The City of North Vancouver’s Community Grant program supports programs located within the City. The District of North Vancouver and District of West Vancouver have different application processes. and organizations must apply separately to each municipality.


Funding Amounts

The Community Grant program provides funding for non-profit and community groups up to a maximum of $15,000.


Deadlines

There are two application deadlines annually: February 28th and September 30th of each year. When these dates land on a weekend, the deadline is the next regular business day.

Please note: If an organization applied for a grant in the first round of the year, they may apply to the second round but only for a different program.
