The fund also provides support for projects related to heritage, language retention, and leadership advancement.
Example Projects
- Play infrastructure
- Sports equipment
- Fine arts materials
- Musical equipment
- Other resources closely related to cultural development and language retention.
Funding Details
The maximum provided for a single grant is $5000; however, part of the process may include assisting the applicant in accessing other funding and support from outside partners. Exceptions may also be made for larger projects that seek to have a positive impact in more than one First Nations community. If outside assistance will be required to undertake the project, support requirements should be outlined clearly on the application.
