March 2024

The Government of Ontario announced that applications are now open for the Ontario Seniors Community Grant Program. The grants, ranging from $1000 to $25,000, support local, not-for-profit community groups and organizations to deliver programs and learning opportunities for Ontarians aged 55+. The funding enables community groups across the province to offer a wide variety of activities that help seniors to live independently, ensure their safety and security, connect them to their community, avoid isolation and help them achieve greater financial security and social connections.

Activities and services supported by the program include:

  • Fitness and nutrition classes to keep adults aged 55+ active, healthy, and socially connected to their communities.
  • Opportunities for community engagement, such as book club gatherings and technology training seminars, to reduce social isolation and increase volunteerism.
  • Increasing access to information through initiatives such as free lectures and supports for health prevention and promotion.

Application Deadline: March 28, 2024.
