The Town of Milton is now looking for applications for the 2022 Milton Community Fund Program.
The Milton Community Fund supports not-for-profit organizations whose initiatives add to the quality of life within our community or enhance Milton’s image.
Organizations providing artistic, cultural and recreational programs and services that benefit the community will be given funding priority. There is roughly $250,000 available for distribution via cash grants for the 2022 program.
The Milton Community Fund was established by Milton Council in 2001 to distribute a portion of the funds received from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (Woodbine – Mohawk Park). Since 2001, the Milton Community Fund has distributed more than $7.1 million to a wide range of not-for-profit community organizations. Last year, Milton Council approved the distribution of $254,872 in grants to support 26 organizations.
The support provided through the Community Fund recognizes their contributions to making Milton a place of possibility for people of all ages.
Applications will be accepted until September 12th for activities and initiatives occurring in 2023. Applicants will receive a decision no later than early January 2023.
Organizations unable to accept funding from the OLG, can contact Town staff for more details, as there are alternate funding sources available. View application guidelines and access submission forms online or call 905-878-7252 ext.4905.
