My Great Neighbourhood Grants
The My Great Neighbourhood Grant program provides funding to residents and non-profit organizations in Victoria to bring community ideas to life and strengthen neighbourhood connections. The City matches community contributions for placemaking projects (up to $8,000), community resiliency projects (up to $5,000), and events and activities (up to $1,500). Projects must be led by local residents, animate community space, and create gathering spots or activities that bring people together.
