The City’s Clean, Green & Beautiful (CGB) Committee is encouraging local organizations to apply for funding for emerging projects that beautify the city and enhance civic pride through public art, beautification, heritage and environmental greening initiatives.

Emerging projects are open to local organizations and businesses, city committees, and city departments for grants up to $5000. Larger contributions will be considered based on tangible community benefits and availability of funds. Studies, research, plans, or administration fees are not eligible for this funding.

Projects should:

  • Provide clear, and highly visible benefits to the community
  • Demonstrate potential for long-term impact or high impact if project is for a shorter duration
  • Align with or further the CGB Committee’s objectives
  • Bring recognition of the CGB Committee’s contribution to further promote their mandate

The deadline is June 24. For more information, and to fill out an application, visit: www.thunderbay.ca/cgb
