344 community development projects will get a boost from the province with a $10 million investment designed to help stimulate the Manitoba economy during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We are committed to supporting projects that will help build thriving, sustainable communities and a better future for Manitobans,” said Premier Brian Pallister. “These grants will help give community organizations a much-needed boost during this unprecedented time and this investment is another way our government is helping rebuild Manitoba’s economy.”
This new investment supports a previous commitment of more than $28 million for a variety of projects ranging from playgrounds to building repairs, accessibility upgrades, to sports equipment and nature trails.
The province says that specific projects will be announced in the near future.
