The call for proposals is open from May 7, 2018 until June 15, 2018. Eligible organizations can receive up to $25,000 in project funding and up to $5,000 in new small grants funding for organizations that have not received funding within the last five years (including the 2012-2013 NHSP call for proposals).
Three national priorities have been identified for the small grants initiative: projects benefiting vulnerable seniors populations, projects focusing on the diversity of Canada’s seniors, and projects using volunteerism to increase an organization’s capacity.
Applicants must submit projects in line with at least one of these priorities.Since 2004, the Program has funded more than 21,600 projects in communities across Canada, with a total federal investment of more than $452 million.
