The grants allow groups of two or more neighbours to apply for $50 - $500 to work together on small projects that benefit their neighbourhoods socially, physically, culturally or environmentally. All kinds of projects can receive funding. For example, you could paint a mural, plant a neighbourhood garden, teach a cooking or art class, put up a community bulletin board, celebrate a cultural holiday, host a music recital, hold a dialogue or talking circle, share a craft or skill, or have a block party.

Deadline for submissions is April 30th, 2012.
