City opens up Community Microgrant Funding applications

The City of Grande Prairie has opened up applications for this year’s Community Microgrant Funding.

The city explains that the Community Microgrant intends to build connections in the community through funding projects, gatherings, and cultural events. Eligible individuals and groups can apply for funding up to a maximum of $1,500.

According to the city, the new funding stream was developed through the unification of existing grants in order to improve funding accessibility for applicants.

Grande Prairie Mayor Jackie Clayton describes the funding as another way the city is responding to community needs and its commitment to supporting tourism and events in Grande Prairie.

“We look forward to the positive impact this granting is going to have, and the many unique opportunities it will support to boost community pride and quality of life,” she says.

Applications are available on the city’s website and are open year-round. There are no submission deadlines and the city will be accepting applications until the funding pool is exhausted.
