Summary
This grant opportunity is designed to support community organizations and grassroots initiatives that focus on creating positive, lasting change for women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals. It is available to nonprofit organizations and community-based groups operating in Central Alberta and surrounding areas. The funding aims to support programs that enhance the well-being, safety, and potential of those who are often underrepresented or underserved.
The primary goal of this opportunity is to promote gender equity by funding efforts that address a range of social issues—such as access to basic needs, educational enrichment, leadership development, and initiatives that foster independence and empowerment. The funding is particularly intended for smaller organizations with modest budgets that are led by or work closely with the populations they serve.
Eligible applicants can include registered nonprofit organizations, municipalities, or community collectives with charitable partnerships. Projects should demonstrate a clear intent to benefit women, girls, or gender-diverse individuals through programming, services, or advocacy efforts that create tangible outcomes in local communities.
Funding typically supports initiatives such as skill-building workshops, mentorship programs, health and wellness services, and community education efforts. These grants are awarded annually and are often timed to align with broader national or international observances related to gender equality. Award amounts are generally modest, encouraging sustainable, community-driven impacts.
This grant program values inclusivity, leadership by lived experience, and community collaboration. By supporting small organizations and grassroots leaders, the initiative hopes to amplify voices that often go unheard and empower a new generation of changemakers. This is an ideal opportunity for those seeking to make a meaningful difference through targeted, impactful programs focused on equity, safety, and opportunity for all.
