Blue Mountain Village Foundation (BMVF) knows that COVID-19 is causing great challenges within our community, increasing the demands on families, heath care teams, essential workers, businesses and our local charitable organizations who are responding as best and as fast as they can.

That is why we are launching our Accelerated Spring Grant Program with streamlined criteria and a desire to donate funds to organizations that need support right now to help our South Georgian Bay Community adapt to the crisis and help those in need.

 We will provide fifteen $1,000 grants to local charities and not-for-profit agencies to support their efforts. Please see grant applications process details below:

    3. How are you collaborating with other local service agencies or forming partnerships to elevate scope, reach and/or impact?
    4. How will you use funds to support your efforts?
  2. Please submit your applications to BMVF by April 30, 2020 to [email protected] . Our selection Committee will assess all grant applications and disburse funds by May 8, 2020.
