The County of Northern Lights provides funds through the Recreation and Culture Funding policy to the North Recreation Board and the South Recreation Board to disburse on the County’s behalf.
The Recreation Boards can provide funds of up to $10,000 to groups operating within the County and surrounding communities through an application process.
Eligible expenses include program and event funding, advertising, and capital assistance. Applicants must apply directly to the Recreation Board serving the area in which their organization operates.
Applications are accepted continuously throughout the year, however, it is recommended to submit applications at least 2 weeks before funds are needed for your event, program, or project to allow the Recreation Boards' time to review applications.
Application forms and eligibility details are provided in the 'Requests Made to Recreation Board for Funding Guide and Application Form' and in the Recreation and Culture Funding Policy.
