Supporting Our Nation’s Youth AT RISK: Apply for Funding!

The RCMP Foundation is pleased to announce the 2010 Fall funding round is NOW OPEN!. The deadline for applications is Friday, October 15th, 2010 at 11:59 EST. Funding Criteria and Funding Reporting have recently been revised and should be read carefully before submitting an online application at the RCMP Foundation website (www.rcmp-f.ca).

In addition to implementing the service and commitment elements of their jobs with Canada’s premier police force, RCMP members look beyond their work by voluntarily helping to fill the gaps with on-going inspiration, training and caring mentorship to direct youth down the road to a brighter future.

The RCMP Foundation encourages these positive activities by offering funding to community groups working in partnership with RCMP members to implement programs addressing such problems as safety, drug awareness, anti-bullying, literacy, and victim services.

For additional information on the RCMP Foundation funding program please contact Sarah Bellissimo at 613-741-7560 ext 5 or sbellissimo@rcmp-f.ca.

                          We look forward to reviewing your funding application!
