Eligibility Criteria

Community organizations that are registered charities or qualified donees under the Income Tax Act are eligible to apply for grants from the Foundation.
Please note: Non-profit society registration in British Columbia does not, by itself, qualify an organization as a registered charity.
Applications from an organization that does not have charitable status may be considered if the applicant organization partners with a registered charity (Qualified Donee) that will receive the funds for the proposed project. The City of Quesnel acts as the Qualified Donee for organizations that have projects approved by the Foundation. The relationship must be a formal arrangement set out in writing between the registered charity (City) and the applicant organization after FINAL project approval by the Foundation.
