Welland is now accepting applications for its 2027 Community Grants Program, with funding available to registered charities, not-for-profit organizations and individual artists.
Applications are open until November 26th, with support available for arts and culture, community events and social service programs.
The city says the program helps strengthen community connections, encourage participation and improve quality of life for residents.
Applications will be assessed based on community need, financial sustainability, alignment with city priorities and other factors, with funding decisions considered as part of the 2027 budget process.
A virtual information session is also being held October 29th from 5 to 6 p.m. to explain the program and application process.
A recording will be posted afterward on Engage Welland.
