Access to arts and cultural activities is one of the key strengths in any community.

Many organizations providing these activities in our area are struggling due to lack of resources and funding. The Kitchener and Waterloo Community Foundation is now able to make a difference to these organizations through the generosity of The Ontario Trillium Foundation.

As part of a $25,000 grant, the KWCF will look for ways to build and maintain strong arts, culture and heritage organizations for the benefit of our community. We are working with partners in Sudbury, Windsor and Kingston .

Through this collaboration, we'll open the lines of communication within communities and organizations to create a Waterloo Region that thrives on artistic, cultural and heritage-related activities.
