Funding for Communities from McConnell Foundation

The McConnell Foundation (MF) dedicates itself to work in strengthening collective resilience among those affected by continuous stress and the repercussions of the pandemic while building inclusive communities that are more future ready. All proposals must be submitted via their online portal where they will be reviewed by the MF team. MF seeks to advance community wellbeing (as well as environmental sustainabiltiy) at a generational scale, by:

• providing funding for organizations to carry out activities that make a difference
• making impact investments
• convening stakeholders within and across domains
• interacting with governments and supporting policy development
• strengthening sector capacities
• fostering communication and collaboration platforms to reinforce the impact of collective efforts

• More information can be found in their Strategic Direction announcement or by emailing communications@mcconnellfoundation.ca.
• More detailed information forthcoming in the coming months and will be updated here on CORE Canada.
