Upcoming Municipal Community Grants Launch and Grantwriting Event

Municipal Community Grants Launching February 10th!

Throughout 2024, the Municipal Community Grants went through an extensive review process, resulting in the establishment of the new PEC Arts Fund and changes to the Municipal Community Grants program.  


The Municipal Community Grants provide financial or in-kind support to Community Organizations that provide programs, services or activities in culture, heritage, recreation, environment, and health & human services.  

Arts Organizations are no longer eligible to apply for cash funding through the Municipal Community Grants program. They can instead apply to the PEC Arts Fund, which supports organizations that have a stated mandate to provide services, programs and amenities in the realm of the arts (including but not limited to visual, performing and performance, literary, media and decorative arts). 

The County Foundation will be accepting grant applications for the 2025 Municipal Community Grants from February 10th to March 24th, 2025.
