What else should I know about City of Victoria?

The City of Victoria is a major local funder for community-led work, arts activity and neighbourhood resilience. Its grant programs include My Great Neighbourhood Grants, Festival Project Grants, Major Community Initiatives and Events support, and equity-focused opportunities such as the IDPAD Youth Grant. These programs help non-profits, resident groups and community partners finance projects that bring people together, activate public spaces, strengthen culture and address local priorities. In the funding ecosystem, Victoria s role is especially useful because municipal grants can be paired with volunteer time, in-kind support and other local contributions, making smaller organizations more competitive and better prepared to deliver. By funding festivals, placemaking, community resilience and major civic initiatives, the City helps turn local ideas into visible public value while keeping decision making close to residents, neighbourhoods and the city s strategic priorities.
