“Thanks to these grants, organizations in Penticton and Summerland can have an even greater impact within their communities,” said Penticton MLA Dan Ashton. “By promoting sports and culture, we are ensuring that our communities are vibrant and strong, with a variety of educational and physical activities that the whole family can enjoy.”
About $7 million in grants is being distributed this month to approximately 200 sport and arts and culture groups around the province.
The community gaming grant program allows non-profit organizations to apply for provincial gaming revenues to support direct delivery of a program that benefits the broader community.
