Grant and Funding Programs Offered by City of Saint-Quentin

The City of Saint-Quentin is a francophone municipality in northern New Brunswick that, beyond delivering basic local services, also plays a direct role as a funding provider. Through municipal policies and programs, the city supports students, residents, businesses and community organizations with targeted financial assistance aligned with local development priorities.

A key component of the city’s funding activities is its postsecondary scholarship program. Each year, Saint-Quentin awards two scholarships of $1,000 to graduates of Polyvalente A.J. Savoie (including alternative classes) who pursue full‑time studies at the Université de Moncton or at another recognized postsecondary institution. The municipality sets clear eligibility conditions, requires a participation form and publishes deadlines and policy 2011‑38 governing these awards.

Through its administrative policies, the city has formal mechanisms to provide broader financial support. Policy 2019‑27 defines the “Remise de dons aux organismes communautaires”, allowing the municipality to assist local non‑profit and community groups. Additional policies (such as a family of “mesures incitatives” for newcomers and for residential, commercial or industrial buildings) outline incentives that can include financial benefits to encourage settlement, construction or investment in the community.

All bylaws, financial statements, budgets and policies are published under the “Publications officielles” section, ensuring transparency for citizens and applicants. The municipal council and administration oversee these programs as part of a broader strategy for sustainable development, community well‑being and local economic vitality.
