Announcing the Spring 2021 Responsive Neighbourhood Small Grants
We’re thrilled to announce the project funded by CBT’s spring 2021 Responsive Neighbourhood Small Grants! These grants are designed to help us foster connection in our communities during the pandemic when many of us can feel isolated and vulnerable. When we feel a sense of belonging in our community, we're more likely to be engaged in activities that make it a better place to live.
These 28 projects received a total of $9,550 and are led by residents from communities across the region. If you see a project that you’d like to get involved in, email us and we’ll connect you with the project leader!
