Calgary Foundation Community Grants

Deadline: Rolling deadline Amount: CAD 5,000 – CAD 200,000 Where: Calgary, Alberta

About this grant

The Calgary Foundation's largest granting program, open twice a year, supporting engaged and inclusive communities in the Calgary area. Funds existing programming (delivery, continuation, stabilization or incremental growth where the core program, target population and service delivery model stay the same) as well as new initiatives. Roughly 200 applications are received each cycle.

Details verified from the funder's page on September 2, 2026. Always confirm the latest requirements on the official Calgary Foundation page before submitting.

Who can apply

Charities and qualified donees serving the Calgary area. The Existing Programming stream is for organizations with an annual operating budget under $4 million. Eligible costs include salaries, program materials and equipment, space, promotion, administration and accessibility considerations. An exception allows charities to apply for a second grant when supporting a registered non-profit society that cannot access funding on its own. Annual events or event series such as symposiums, gatherings and conferences are ineligible.

How to apply

  1. Read the guidelines on the Calgary Foundation website and confirm your organization qualifies.
  2. Gather your basics: mission, the problem you address, your program plan, and a budget for what you'd do with the funding.
  3. Write the proposal — or have GrantOrb draft it for you from your organization's profile, tailored to Calgary Foundation Community Grants, in minutes instead of weeks.
