Funding for Rural Ontario Organizations

Your rural Ontario organization may be eligible for funding to assist with:

• Skills Development
• Hiring Interns
• Business Development
• Local Initiatives Projects
• Community Capacity Projects

Local Initiative and Community Capacity activities include research, marketing and promotion, tourism related events, seminars and workshops, and small-scale capital projects that assist to strengthen your community.

Eligible expenses include marketing, advertising and equipment. Consulting and professional fees are also eligible.

Non-profit organizations can apply for up to 100% of eligible costs.

This is a time sensitive program, so I would advise contacting your local Community Futures Development Corporation to determine if your project is eligible.
