Capital Grants Available Soon

January 15, 2025

Through Capital grants, the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) helps non-profits undertake essential projects that directly benefit Ontarians by improving community facilities and spaces.

Grants can be used to purchase equipment and complete renovations, retrofits, or repairs.

Capital grant applicants need to demonstrate how their project responds to a community need or opportunity and aligns with one of the following Capital grant objectives:

• Maintain or increase access to a program or service
• Extend the life of a facility or space
• Improve a facility or space to make it more accessible

Applicants must select an objective and demonstrate that their project will help achieve one of OTF’s Funding Priorities, as outlined in the Grant Investment Framework.

The grant application period is from February 5, 2025, to March 5, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. ET.
