2021 Discretionary Grants
Every year, the CBT provides small project funding (up to $5,000) in the following four areas: Research and Environment, Community Development, Arts and Culture, and Youth and Education. Each granting stream is built upon different funding priorities and overseen by its own Advisory Committee comprised of 12-15 local volunteers with interest and expertise relevant to the specific grant.
A second round of Arts & Culture grants will open for applications on September 1, 2021 and close October 1, 2021. For more information on these grants and their funding priorities, visit our website, contact Faye by email or call 250-266-2434.
