CVRD accepting community grant applications until October 15

Non-profit and charitable organizations in the Comox Valley may be eligible for extra funding. 

The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) is accepting grant applications from Comox Valley organizations until October 15. 

Electoral Areas Services Committee Chair Edwin Grieve said they look forward to receiving each submission and supporting the community as much as they can. 

“These grants offer a greater opportunity to assist non-profit and charitable organizations throughout the Comox Valley,” Grieve says. 

The grant opportunities include rural community grants for the Electoral Areas, one-time community grants for recreation, arts and culture, and several other grants for organizations which have demonstrated community benefit and need. 

These grants are reviewed annually and are not intended to provide long-term operational support, but all are encouraged to apply.
