The Canada Post Community Foundation announced that applications are now open for the 2024 Canada Post Community Foundation Grants. The Foundation provides grants to Canadian schools, charities and community organizations that make a difference in the lives of children and youth (up to age 21). 

Grant streams:

  • Grants for community-based support projects
    • Eligible projects should increase the capacity of an organization and create or expand services, rather than maintaining existing services. For example, purchasing new equipment or launching new programs.
    • Project grants are available for projects valued at up to $25,000 each.
  • Signature Grant
    • The Signature Grant is meant to contribute to the overall work and mission of national organizations that deliver programs or support to Canadian children and youth.
    • Up to three (3) Signature Grants of $50,000 each can be awarded each year.
  • Indigenous Truth and Reconciliation Signature Grant
    • The Indigenous Truth and Reconciliation Signature Grant is available to Indigenous regional or local organizations offering programming anchored in the principles of Indigenous truth and reconciliation that supports Indigenous children and youth across the country.
    • One (1) Indigenous Truth and Reconciliation Signature Grant of $50,000 can be awarded each year.
