HCI Fund Application Process

Eligible Applicants

To be eligible to receive a grant, or to submit an application proposing a capital project, an applicant must be a not-for-profit community group or organization that conducts its activities within the boundaries of the City of Greater Sudbury and have a legal bank account in the name of the applicant or of a not-for-profit, parent group/organization. Applications are also eligible if they are for a Councillor-led event.

When to Apply

Applications may be submitted up to 12 months in advance of the event/initiative.

Any eligible applications for the next calendar year’s funding, whether for a grant or capital project, will be held but not assessed until November/December of the current year.

How to Apply

  • To begin the application process, create an account using the online grant portal. 
  • You are encouraged to review the HCI Fund Policy (PDF, 778 KB) and discuss the purpose of your request with Ward Councillors prior to submitting a funding application.
