Grants

Rally Together (comprised of the Sport Participation and Sport Volunteer Grants) was developed to provide one-time recovery funding for amateur sport organizations that have seen a decrease in membership and volunteerism due to COVID-19. This fund will help B.C.’s amateur sport system continue to provide opportunities for sport development and recovery as well as the significant community and economic benefits. The Rally Together Fund has a total funding envelope of $4M and is supported by the Province of B.C. and administered through viaSport British Columbia. 

The $2M Sport Volunteer Grant will be open to B.C. based, non-profit provincial sport organizations, disability sport organizations, multi-sport organizations and local sport organizations that have experienced a loss to their volunteer efforts due to COVID-19. It's time to rally together through programs and activities that encourage all British Columbians to volunteer!
