Rosemary’s Pantry Grants
Rosemary’s Pantry Grants were established in 2014 through a generous donation by Rosemary McCain-McMillin. In 2023, we distributed $17,500 in grants to help support the community's need to feed hungry school-aged youth.
Through these grants, eligible organizations in the community can apply for funding to develop creative and impactful solutions to the dilemma of youth hunger in the greater Fredericton region. We encourage applications that:
Bring value to existing community resources through partnerships, strong program design, implementation, and evaluation.
Demonstrate the ability to provide a sustainable project that can last after the initial funding is used.
Engage, inspire, and empower participants at every step of the journey.
Applications for the 2024 Rosemary’s Pantry Grants will open on April 2nd and must be submitted by May 8th at 11:59 PM ADT.
