Programs for seniors in our listening area may be in line for additional funding in the near future.
The Ontario Ministry for Seniors and Accessibility has announced that the provincial government is planning to double its Seniors Community Grant funding since 2018.
They are doing so by investing six-million dollars between now and next year into seniors-based projects with the intention of keeping seniors safe, active, and in touch with friends and family in their communities.
Funding is available from one-thousand to twenty-five-thousand dollars. Seniors programs can learn more about the opportunity on the Business and Economy page on the provinces website: ontario.ca
