Community One Foundation Rainbow Grants – Canada

Deadline: 3 May 2024

The Community One Foundation is providing diverse funding opportunities catering to groups, registered charities, and individuals, aiming to address community needs and align with the philanthropic interests of the donors and the organization’s strategy to support 2SLGBTQ+ BIPOC grassroots community groups.

Through the annual Rainbow Grants, the Community One Foundation provides grants to individuals, groups, and organizations undertaking projects within the GTA (encompassing Toronto, Durham, Peel, Hamilton, York, and Halton Regions, and Indigenous Communities across Ontario) focusing on priority areas where significant community support is deemed crucial. Additionally, grants are extended to individuals or organizations spearheading projects intended to make a tangible and notable impact on the wider community.

The Rainbow Grants are made possible, among other equally significant contributors, by the substantial bequest from the late James Stewart, a mathematician and musician based in Toronto who passed away in December 2014.

Grant Streams

  • HIV/AIDS
  • Indigenous Communities
  • Refugees
  • Trans Communities
  • Spiritual/Social Groups
  • Arts & Culture

Types of Grants and Awards

  • James Stewart Research and Education Award:
    • This award honours registered charities with projects in research and education pertaining to the 2SLGBTQ+ communities. The Award Recipient will receive $15,000 in funding to continue their work.
  • Rainbow Grants Foundation Award:
    • Within each of the six (6) streams listed above, Community One may grant one or more Rainbow Foundation Grant(s) of up to $10,000 per award for registered charities or groups trusteed by a registered charity.
  • Rainbow Grants General Award:
    • Within each of the six (6) streams listed above, Community One may grant one or more Rainbow General Grant(s) of up to $3,000 per award for unincorporated groups, collectives and/or individuals.

Eligibility

  • The Community One Foundation awards Rainbow Grants annually to individuals with lived experience as 2SLGBTQ+ community members, groups, and organizations carrying out community projects for the 2SLGBTQ+ community within the GTA (including Toronto, Durham, Peel, Hamilton, York and Halton Regions, and Indigenous Communities across Ontario).

Additional Details

  • The Community One Foundation prioritizes granting seed money to new and/ or groundbreaking ideas that have a difficult time accessing funding through mainstream sources.
  • The Community One Foundation strongly encourages applications that prioritize and center on the work of Two-Spirit, Indigenous, Black, People of Colour, Trans, Non-binary, and other equity-deserving communities.
  • While Rainbow Grants are not intended to provide ongoing operating and financial support for projects or programs, they respect that projects may take time to become self-sustaining or find other sources of funding.
  • For applications made through trustees, the cheque will be made out to the trustee who holds and distributes the funds.
