Other (External) Grant Programs
ACF is pleased to be a part of Community Foundations of Canada & Connect BC in partnership with the Vancouver Foundation. As part of these broader organizations, we are given the opportunity to offer national and provincial grant programs in our local communities. We announce funding details, application requirements & eligibility as they arise.
The Community Prosperity Fund (CPF) was a $25 million investment from the Government of BC to advance poverty reduction and social inclusion – announced on the inaugural BC Nonprofit Day. The CPF was part of the Government of BC’s commitment to supporting the non-profit sector & empowering communities to make local decisions. ACF distributed funds through an open call for the communities of Abbotsford, Agassiz-Harrison, Chilliwack, Hope, & nearby Indigenous Nations in the summer of 2024. This program is CLOSED.
ACF was proud to work with community foundations across Canada as part of the Community Services Recovery Fund. A collaboration between Canadian Red Cross, Community Foundations of Canada, and United Way Centraide Canada, this fund provided grants to Community Service Organizations including non-profit organizations, Indigenous Governing Bodies and registered charities in Canada. This Fund responded to what charities and non-profits needed as they adapted to the long-term impacts of the pandemic. We disbursed funding to Abbotsford, Agassiz-Harrison, Chilliwack, and Hope in the summer of 2023. This program is CLOSED.
