About the Grant Program

The foundation of this community-based funding program is to improve the well-being and quality of life of the citizens of Midland.  Financial assistance offered through this program is directed toward not-for-profit community-based organizations as well as individuals providing a wide range of programs and services across the community.

2023 Program Year - Now Open

Funding for the 2023 Program Year was approved in the amount of $40,000.  

Deadline for 2023 Applications

The deadline to submit applications for the 2023 program year is Friday April 28, 2023. Submit your application to grants@midland.ca.

What applicants need to know:
  • The application process is a competitive process.

  • There are more grant applications received than available funding.

  • Past funding commitments should not be interpreted as a guarantee that future funding requests will be approved.

  • Preference is given to new initiatives, but a promising program may receive in its infancy a grant for more than one year if the program is developing successfully and is self-sustaining in the future.

  • An established program may receive a grant when it faces a new opportunity for expansion or has encountered unexpected challenges. ​
