Commemorating the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation | Canadian Heritage

To be eligible for funding, your organization must be:

• an Indigenous government, band council, or tribal council, or its delegated authority
• an Indigenous not-for-profit organization or group
• a for-profit Indigenous organization, provided that the project for which you are requesting funding will not result in income generation for your sole benefit
• an Indigenous ad hoc committee that has formed for a specific project
• an Indigenous-led institution including accredited programs

Non-Indigenous applicants are considered in exceptional circumstances, as determined by the Program. The organization must work in close partnership with an Indigenous organization and include a letter of support outlining their role in the project.

In the case of partnerships, one organization must assume the lead role and responsibility for the overall management and coordination of the project.
