Community Grants & Awards

This Challenge is an initiative designed to support local entrepreneurship. Aspiring entrepreneurs with a passion for our community will be invited to submit a business plan for a new or scaled up business on Main Street in the Village.

The Community Improvement Plan offers matching cash grant programs to assist businesses with starting up, expanding, or improving a commercial property. This includes the following matching cash grant programs:

  • Building Improvement Grant Program (Downtown)
  • Leasehold Improvement Program (Urban Intensification Areas in Stouffville, Ballantrae, and Downtown)
  • Food Security Grant Program (Rural Areas)
  • Tourism & Outdoor Experience Grant Program (Rural Areas)

These grant funds are focused on new employment, visitor attraction, diversity & inclusivity, heritage preservation, food security, rural viability, and existing business stability.
