CIP Operating Grants

Community Initiatives Program (CIP) aims to foster healthy, vibrant communities across Alberta. The program has been designed to support the efforts of organizations that contribute to their communities and to create opportunities for Albertans to engage with their communities and with communities of interest.

Within CIP there are four distinct funding streams: (1) Project – based stream provides funding support to eligible nonprofit organizations for community projects such as new programs, new initiatives, community events or community publications in Alberta; (2) Operating stream provides funding support to eligible nonprofit organizations in Alberta to enhance the organization's ability to operate and deliver services to the community; (3) International Development stream provides funding to small and medium-sized Alberta-based non-governmental organizations to meet local needs through support of sustainable community development projects. The purpose of the International Development funding stream is to match or supplement the donations Albertans make to humanitarian projects of their choosing in developing nations;
