Service Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP) is holding a Call for Proposals (CFP) for Community based Projects.
The program offers grants of up to $25,000 for projects that encourage seniors to share their skills and experiences with others and help communities increase their capacity to address local issues.
Deadline for applications: July 4, 2014
Projects must address one or more of the program’s five objectives:
- promoting volunteerism among seniors and other generations;
- engaging seniors in the community through the mentoring of others;
- expanding awareness of elder abuse, including financial abuse;
- supporting the social participation and inclusion of seniors; and
- providing capital assistance for new and existing community projects and/or programs for seniors.
