We focus primarily on capital grants for projects in Alberta.
Some priority is given to Calgary-based projects.
Typically we do not fund projects located in Edmonton when these serve primarily a local need, on the assumption that such projects can be funded locally in Edmonton. Further, as a general rule, we do not provide funds for operating expenses, research, deficit reduction, seminars, tours or conferences. Government regulations prohibit our providing funds to individuals. Capital grants are for the purchase of equipment and furnishings, and for the renovation, purchase or construction of buildings. Ordinarily we do not provide operating dollars to applicants, but we must be assured that operating dollars will be available, so that the capital project will be viable once it is completed.
