United Church of Canada Foundation Winter 2025 Centennial Grants

Let’s celebrate!

The Joint Grants Committee and the United Church of Canada Foundation Board are happy to share the Winter 2025 Centennial Grant results! This is the second of four granting rounds for this fund.

As the United Church of Canada approaches its Centennial, many communities of faith are planning activities in celebration. We recognize the need to support these groups and thus, the Centennial Granting Fund was born, providing funding for events marking the milestone moment! The creation of the Centennial Granting Fund represents a tangible expression of solidarity, support, and celebration.

13 projects uniting dozens of communities of faith over 7 different Regional Councils will receive support for their celebratory events:

• Westlock Pastoral Charge (Westlock, AB)
• MacKenzie United Church (Portage la Prairie, MB)
• Bedeque, South Shore, and Bedeque North Pastoral Charges (Bedeque, PE)
