Summary
Invests in the enhancement, upgrade and creation of publicly accessible community spaces and assets; accessibility is one of several funded purposes. Projects must provide broad community benefit and be completed within 12 months of funding; operating costs, salaries, retroactive work and private-land projects without public access are ineligible. The current stream invites direct applications, while a general footer says applications must go through a Western affiliate office; confirm the route with the foundation if this restriction affects your application.
Eligibility
Canadian charities and qualified donees recognised by the CRA, including municipalities, serving a community where Western Financial Group has a presence and providing free public community benefits. The total project budget must not exceed $500,000 CAD; nonprofit status alone is insufficient, and only one application to one stream is allowed per funding cycle.
