Hi,

 

The following is a grant program offered by the Province of Ontario –
deadline to apply is Jan 30, 2015; 5:00pm EST:

 

************************

Age-friendly communities promote healthy and active aging. People in
age-friendly communities are supported in maintaining their independence and
have access to the community supports and services they require. 

 

The new Age-Friendly Community Planning Grant will offer a total of up to
$1.5 million over two years for short and longer-term projects.

 

Funding will support local governments and community organizations to
undertake strategic planning with a focus on seniors as outlined in the
Age-Friendly Community Planning Guide and lead to the development of local
aging plans that will eventually be implemented, evaluated and improved
upon.
