Moyie Community Association gets $4,300
The Moyie Community Association, dedicated to building a stronger and more connected community, has received a gaming grant worth $4,300 from the B.C. government.
Across British Columbia, 294 recipients are sharing $6,272,130 in the latest round of grants. Recipients in this round of grants include programs for Human and Social Services. Community Gaming Grants help local groups provide important services for B.C. families.
“Delivering recreational programs and engaging in community development are just a few ways the Moyie Community Association has made the region a better place to live. Thank you for your commitment and exceptional work,” stated Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett who presented the grant money April 8.
Community Gaming Grants allow non-profit organizations to apply for provincial gaming revenues.
Last fiscal year, in 2011/12, our government distributed a total of $135 million in gaming grants for eligible community programs and services.
More than 5,300 community groups benefited from funding during 2011/12.
