The Milton Small Grant Program is a program designed to support community residents and not-for-profit corporations/non-profit organizations planning small scale, citizen-led activities that will enhance the well-being of Milton residents.
About the program
Funding for the Milton Small Grant Program comes from the Milton Community Fund, with $75,000 made available for 2023.
Successful recipients can receive up to $2,500 per one (1) application, per calendar year. Funding from this program is meant to encourage members of the community to invest in one another by connecting people socially and by sharing knowledge, talents and space.
Organizations unable to accept funding from the OLG, can contact Town staff for more details, as there are alternate funding sources available.
The 2023 application intake period opens April 3, 2023. Applications are accepted throughout the year.
This grant is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Should annual program funding be depleted prior to the end of the calendar year, the application window will close from that point and for the remainder of the year.
