2024 BCF Community Grants Now Open

Explore our new application portal

This community has a remarkable ability to get things done - to clear pathways, to build bridges, find solutions and to provide support where it's most needed.


This month, Banff Canmore Foundation (BCF) launched a new portal to make it easier for organizations to apply for grants and other programs. This new tool will also support the work of the people who serve on BCF's Grant Review Committee, allowing to better understand a project's potential.


The first program on the new platform is the 2024 BCF Community Grants. The portal to receive applications for that program is now live on our website. The deadline for submission of January 30, 2024.


"With the support of visionary donors, BCF is building up our capacity to support organizations throughout the Bow Valley more efficiently and effectively. With investments in technology, we can now devote even more resources to supporting the organizations and initiatives doing critical work to enhance quality of life."


- Laurie Edward, BCF Executive Director
