United Way Colchester County

Improving lives and building community in Colchester County

Community Services Recovery Fund

Fonds de relance des services communautaires

Through the Community Services Recovery Fund, United Way of Colchester County is looking to deliver just under $300,000 to agencies across Colchester and Cumberland counties to allow for innovative responses to program delivery from information learned over the Covid-19 pandemic.

United Way Colchester takes part in the Community Services Recovery Fund – a $400 million investment in charities and non-profits

Now more than ever, charities and non-profits are playing a key role in addressing persistent and complex social problems faced by all Canadians. The Community Services Recovery Fund is a $400 million investment from the Government of Canada to support charities and non-profits as they build resilience by making investments in their people, organizations, and program innovation.

United Way of Colchester County is proud to be taking part in the Community Services Recovery Fund, a collaboration between United Way Centraide Canada, Canadian Red Cross, and Community Foundations of Canada to provide funding to Community Service Organizations, including non-profit organizations, Indigenous Governing Bodies, and Registered Charities located across Canada. The Community Services Recovery Fund responds to what charities and non-profits need right now and supports organizations as they adapt to the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The deadline for applications was February 21, 2023. Applications are now being reviewed, and successful applicants will be informed by summer.
