Grants and Funding for Indigenous Businesses and Organizations

Funding for Indigenous businesses, entrepreneurs, communities, and organizations in Canada can support enterprise development, community priorities, infrastructure, employment, innovation, partnerships, and other eligible projects. Funders may define First Nations, Inuit, and Métis applicants differently through ownership, control, governance, community mandate, location, or recognized partnerships. Confirm the applicant category first, then document the project purpose, decision-making authority, expected benefits, funding mechanism, eligible costs, and evidence required for the proposed work.
