The government has now opened the application portal for the Community Services Recovery Fund, announced on Tuesday, November 22nd.  This one-time $400 million investment to support Community Service Organizations, including non-profit organizations, Indigenous Governing Bodies, and Registered Charities located in Canada,  as they focus on how to adapt their organizations for pandemic recovery.  The CSRF application portal will open for applications from January 6, 2023, to February 21, 2023.  For more information and to register for the Webinar on January 12, 2023, @ 02:00 pm EST.  go to https://communityservicesrecoveryfund.ca.

 

We are pleased to share that Deep River and District Community Foundation is working with community foundations across Canada in collaboration with the Canadian Red Cross and United Way Centraide to distribute funding within our Local Stream, as follows:

 

  1. Community Foundations: Projects primarily focused on organization systems and processes.

  2. United Way Centraide: Projects focused on program and service innovation and redesign.

  3. Canadian Red Cross: Project primarily focused on people (i.e., staff, volunteers, and the Board of Directors).

  Please note: The local Stream project's minimum grant will be $10,000.

 

Funding from the Community Services Recovery Fund will enable charities, non-profits and Indigenous Governing Bodies to invest in their own organizational capacity to: 

  • adapt the way they deliver services to support the needs of their staff and volunteers;

  • buy equipment such as computers and software;

  • create new ways of working, such as developing new fundraising approaches;

  • provide support for staff and volunteers, such as staff training, supports for mental health and well-being; and

  • develop plans to receive funding from diverse sources.

 

We also strongly encourage you to go to the Community Services Recovery Fund website for more information

“The Government supports a more inclusive model of economic growth that creates opportunities for everyone in Canada as the long-term recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic continues. The Community Services Recovery Fund will strengthen the ability of charities and non-profits to deliver services and resources where they will have the most impact. Because of the National Funders’ strong connections with local organizations, they will ensure funding is distributed efficiently to organizations that provide services to communities in need across Canada.”
– The Minister of Families, Children and Social Development,  Karina Gould

​

“Charities and non-profits are at the forefront of addressing communities’ needs, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, many of them are struggling to recover and adapt their services to the changing needs of the Deep River Area communities. Through the Community Services Recovery Fund, Deep River and District Community Foundation  will be able to give organizations the support they need to serve our community.”

Chair, Deep River and District Community Foundation,  Dianne Lemire
