Applying For Grants
Grant making is one of the key ways we support our community. We provide grants from a variety of funds throughout the year, each with their own guidelines and schedules.
Only registered charities (qualified donees) are eligible for grants from The Kitchener and Waterloo Community Foundation. Non-profit organizations that do not have a charitable registration number, but would like to apply for a grant, please click here. Your charitable registration number is a nine-digit number followed by RR0001.

Together with the City of Waterloo, they are looking to support sports-related projects in Waterloo Region. Individuals, groups, associations, and charitable organizations are invited to submit applications for the Waterloo Region True Sport Grant program. Projects are to engage community members in "asset-based community development" through sport. The deadline is now over.
