Community Grant Application Requirements
It is the policy of the Town of Ste. Anne to consider, within its financial capacity, modest financial support to non-profit organizations within the Town. This support is provided in recognition of the value these organizations provide to the well-being and growth of the community and in helping the Town retain strong community focus.
The Town supports the enhancement of a positive quality of life for all its residents. One means of achieving this goal is through the provision of grants to organizations that contribute to the general interest and advantage of the community. The Town also recognizes that supporting volunteer community-based organizations is often fundamental to maintaining this quality of life. This policy has been formulated to foster consistency with the awarding of grants to groups whose benefits and services are enjoyed by the residents of the Town.
The Town of Ste. Anne is now accepting grant applications for the calendar year 2027, in which will be reviewed by Council during budget discussions.
