Campbell River Community Foundation

Emergency Community Support Fund

COVID19 continues to impact communities across the country. We are pleased to announce that we will be working with the Community Foundations of Canada once more to flow a second round of the Emergency Community Support Fund (ECSF) to charitable organizations serving populations experiencing increased vulnerability. 

Grants

The Campbell River Community Foundation supports nonprofit and charitable organizations in Campbell River. To date, we have distributed over $500,000 in grants to support art, culture, education, youth, health, and our environment. All of these community projects help to make our city a healthier, more vibrant, and livable community. Our grants are made possible through the generosity of community-minded donors. We work closely with our donors to connect them with causes that matter in a variety of areas. 

Regular Grant Applications accepted until October 31.

We are pleased to open our Regular Grant Applications from September 15 to October 31, 2020.  The program will be smaller this year due to funding available but the goal of CRCF is to support as many projects as we can with what is available.  Friendly reminder to all applicants that the projects must adhere to current Public Health Covid-19 Guidelines. 

We are proudly offering the Neighbourhood Small Grants program to the Campbell River community, in collaboration other community foundations in BC.

Grants of up to $500 will be given to families or small groups to support projects that focus on building community and making neighbourhoods better places to live.
