Rural Municipality of Whitemouth G.3
POLICY FOR GRANTS TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
Policy for grants to community organizations:
1.
$10,000.00 annual grant to community organizations will generally be
for capital purchases, not operating costs, and for projects that will
benefit the well-being of the Rural Municipality of Whitemouth.
2.
Community organizations must provide Council with a complete written
budget for their project including all costs and all sources of revenue, as
well as provide Council with a written outline of the purpose of their
project and the benefits that will result from it.
3.
Community organizations seeking funding for a project shall at the same
time seek funding from other levels of government or other sources.
The R.M. of Whitemouth can provide assistance in advising where such
funding exists. Community organizations must provide copies of all
applications made for such funding.
4.
Municipal funding for projects taken on by Community Organizations
generally will be one third of the actual costs, in kind work by volunteers
excluded.
5.
Community organizations seeking municipal funding shall provide a
financial statement. The Municipality requires the request prior to
December 15th of the preceding year prior to the project start date.
This is needed to give council adequate time to assess the value of the
project.

Municipality will consider a 50/50 grant on an individual basis up to a
maximum of $2,000.00 per organization per year.
7. In the case of an emergent need determination will be at the discretion
