Granting Policies


Grants are made to charitable, non-profit organizations with the major emphasis on projects and programs in the areas of education, health care, religion, social welfare and youth. The Foundation’s prime areas of interest are in the Prairie Regions of Canada.

Grants may not be made to individuals due to government regulations. Organizations which do not possess a registration number from Revenue Canada are also exempt (not eligible). It is rare that the Foundation will consider a grant for deficit financing.

Application Procedures


The Foundation requires the applicant to fill out an “Application for Grant” form. Before this form is sent out to the applicant the following is required:

  1. Letter of appeal on letterhead or stationery containing name, address, telephone number and contact person;
  2. A brief description of the organization’s history, objectives and activities;
  3. A brief description of program or project for which funding is requested;
  4. Charitable Registration Number
  5. Who else will be funding
  6. What the funding will be used for

The final decision on all applications is made by the Board of Directors.
