Partnered Granting

The Burlington Community Foundation partners with our national partner organization, Community Foundations of Canada (CFC), to disburse grants when funding is made available, generally through government initiatives.

One example is funds that were provided to benefit communities during COVID-19, which BCF administered through its Community Services Recovery Program. Another was the Investment Readiness Program, which supported charitable organizations establishing social enterprises.

In these instances, BCF works within criteria that has already been established and administers the program locally.

Information about funding opportunities from responsive grants is shared on our website, social media and in our monthly newsletter.
