In order to be eligible to apply for support under the CIP, the organization must have a member attend an Orientation Workshop.
The City of Port Alberni invites local non-profit groups and organizations to attend an Orientation Workshop on the 2016 Community Investment Program. This program replaces the former Grants-in-Aid program.
The CIP includes in-kind services and community development grants. The workshop will outline the criteria for applying and program priorities and guidelines. Application forms will be made available at the workshop. The deadline for applying for the CIP is Thursday, October 1, 2015.
Applications are reviewed by the Community Investment Grant Review Committee. They will make recommendations to City Council for their approval. Decisions for grants to be distributed in 2016 will be made in December 2015.
Please note: that any requests for in kind use of City facilities, equipment or services or for financial contributions to community organizations or events for 2016 are directed through the Community Investment Program.
