Sharing a Legacy - Information for Grant Seekers

Through its grants program, the Community Foundation of the South Okanagan is committed to providing support where there is genuine need, putting seed money in place to nourish opportunities, and building on the strengths of the communities we serve. This program is the apex of our work and forms the point where a donor's wishes are fulfilled, the services of not-for-profit agencies strengthened and the quality of community life is enriched.

To be eligible for community grants program funding, projects proposed must be located in, or benefit residents in communities located within the geographic boundaries of the Regional District of South Okanagan-Similkameen.

Agencies seeking grants from the Community Foundation of the South Okanagan are encouraged to call the executive director at 250-493-9311 or email info@cfso.net.
