JCLS staff are able to help with questions regarding the application process.
EARLY-BIRD APPLICATIONS
Families seeking grant funding for projects that involve travel during summer 2024 are encouraged to submit their project applications as early as possible. This will allow the Project Office to process and bring forward applications for assessment on a rolling basis prior to any travel taking place.
ORGANIZATION AND GROUP APPLICATIONS
Organizations and groups can apply for up to $10,000 for Seniors Intergenerational Group Wellness grants (Category 2).
Organizations and groups can also apply for up to $40,000 ($10,000 for Unincorporated Japanese Canadian Groups) for Intergenerational Group Gatherings (Category 3) – projects that support group gatherings that address historical trauma.
