Neighbourhood Small Grants
Programs & Resources >
Have you got an idea to bring people together? It could be a beautification project for your neighbourhood, a skill or talent you want to share, a need you want to meet, or maybe you just want to host a block party to help build connections and friendship among the people you see every day. Neighbourhood Small Grants (NSGs) can help bring that vision to life.
Grants of up to $500 are awarded to projects which engage the community and draw people out of isolation into connection in ways that enrich themselves and their region. During two cycles in spring and fall, volunteers from the community review proposals and decide on grants, with the principle of working with applicants to create an eligible, engaging project they can approve.
Neighbourhood Small Grants are made possible with funding from the Vancouver Foundation, administered locally by the Association of Neighbourhood Houses of BC (ANHBC). Alex House coordinates the NSG program in South Surrey, White Rock, and Cloverdale.

Are you between the ages of 12 and 24 and want to make a change in your community? It could be a beautification project for your neighbourhood, a skill or talent you want to share, a need you want to meet, or maybe you just want to host a social event to help build connections and friendships among the people you see every day. Youth Neighbourhood Small Grants (Y-NSGs) can help make that vision a reality!
Y-NSGs were developed by youth, for youth to provide solidarity and support for youth-led initiatives. Grants of up to $500 are awarded to projects which engage the community, drawing people of all ages from isolation into connection, in ways which enrich both themselves and the places where they live. During two cycles in spring and fall, youth volunteers from the community review proposals and decide on grants, with the principle of working with applicants to create an eligible, engaging project they can approve.
