Outside Agency Operating Grant Program

Applications for 2023 grant funding are now closed.

The Outside Agency Grant Program is available for eligible community groups to assist with offsetting annual operating expenses, specifically staffing and facility operating costs. To be eligible, a St. Albert registered not-for-profit organization must offer community support services in the areas of recreation, culture, or social support, which provides the support needed to help vulnerable residents be successful in the community, including within their housing, recreation, culture, and social environments.

Organizations that provide support services related to basic needs such as food, shelter, water, clothing, and personal safety are eligible to receive a more substantial grant.

Organizations that provide support services related to improving citizens' sense of community connection, social opportunities, and recognition are also eligible for consideration.

This program is governed by Council Policy C-CS-22 Outside Agency Operating Grant Program.
