The City of Thunder Bay’s Clean, Green & Beautiful (CGB) Committee is excited to announce the launch of the 2025 Emerging Project Grants. This annual grant program invites local organizations to apply for funding to help bring public spaces to life through public art, beautification, heritage, and environmental greening projects that spark civic pride and support a vibrant, growing city.

Grants of up to $5,000 are available to local organizations, businesses, City committees and departments - with the potential for larger contributions for projects that deliver tangible community benefits and align with available funding. Please note that studies, research, plans, and administrative fees are not eligible for this funding.

Projects should:

  • Provide clear and highly visible benefits to the community;
  • Demonstrate potential for long-term impact or high impact if the project is of shorter duration;
  • Align with or further the CGB Committee’s objectives;
  • Recognize the CGB Committee’s contribution to help promote its mandate.

Organizations with innovative ideas that contribute to a cleaner, greener, and more beautiful Thunder Bay are encouraged to apply.

The deadline is May 4. For more information and to access the application form, visit: www.thunderbay.ca/cgb
