When people implement small acts, communities thrive.
Grassroots Grants help people implement small acts of community, in the communities they live, by offering small amounts of money for project expenses.
The small acts of community can be projects such as:
- Build a stage at your local community garden
- Offer a free class in something you love to do – maybe dance or coding or beading
- Organize a bike tune-up day
- Paint a community mural
- Run a cultural sharing event
Grassroots Grant project support reflects the concepts of Community Development. To learn more about this approach, you can connect with Calgary and area’s network of people who build belonging and well-being at the neighbourhood and community level.
