2025 In-Kind Municipal Community Grant Recipients | The County Foundation

2025 Municipal Community In-Kind Grant Recipients

An additional six community organizations are enhancing the quality of life for residents thanks to in-kind support from the County of Prince Edward.

The second round of applications to the in-kind stream of the Municipal Community Grants program opened this past fall. With these six additional successful applications, the municipality has provided a total of $20,000 of in-kind support to 12 organizations in 2025. In addition, 30 organizations have received cash grants this year. A list of all 2025 recipients can be found here.

"There are so many outstanding organizations and volunteers doing incredible work across Prince Edward County. I am thrilled that we can lend a hand to these groups so that they can have an even greater impact on the community." - Mayor Steve Ferguson

"“We're proud to partner on this program, which strengthens the work of community organizations by giving them access to resources they need. Offering grants for municipal venues or labour reduces their costs so they can redirect their time and budgets toward initiatives that create positive impact across the County." - Gillian Armstrong, Interim Executive Director of The County Foundation

The Municipal Community Grants Program is made possible through funding from the County of Prince Edward and is administered by The County Foundation (TCF). The County Foundation works with an adjudication panel to determine which applicants receive the grants.

There are two intake periods for the in-kind funding stream. The primary intake takes place in the Spring with the full amount of funding for the year available. The secondary intake occurs in the Fall and allocates the remaining in-kind funds to projects scheduled later in the cycle, which often have shorter planning timelines.
