Overview

The Transforming Systems Grants (TSG) will fund organizations advancing systemic change by addressing the root causes of inequality and supporting those most affected to shape their own futures. TSG is intended to support organizations that prioritize intersectionality, allyship and mutual liberation in their efforts to challenge oppressive systems. These grants of $300,000 offer flexible, operational funding for three years to qualified donees, registered non-profit societies and community co-operatives operating in BC.

Purpose of Funding

This funding was designed to support operational costs, rather than specific projects, to provide organizations with the flexibility to use the funding to meet their own needs and priorities.

Funding is intended to support existing work and can be used for one or more of the following:

• Sustaining, deepening, and/or expanding current operations and initiatives;
• Building or expanding networks or strategic partnerships; and/or,
• Amplifying reach and effectiveness.

Available Grants

Each grant is $300,000, divided into equal payments of $100,000, to be distributed over three years.
