Grants in Action 2026
The Grants in Action series will highlight the amazing work and impact created in our community by the organizations funded through the Brant Community Foundation. We are honoured to support these charities and are thrilled to share how they are generating positive change through our grant program!
Autism Dog Services
The life-changing benefits of matching young people with autism with specially trained service dogs are profound. Funding support from Brant Community Foundation will support Autism Dog Services to increase the number of successfully trained service dogs available for service work. This funding will strengthen outreach across the Brantford area and help reduce wait lists for those in need.
Brant County Singers
This local women’s chorus has been delighting audiences with their concerts and performances for many years. In fact, the Spring 2026 concert is a celebration of the group’s 55th anniversary! BCF congratulates the Brant County Singers on this milestone anniversary and is pleased to support continued success with funding for the purchase of new music stands and supplies for the growing base of chorus members.
Brant Music Festival
BCF’s support of the 2026 Brant Music Festival contributed to the smooth and successful operation of the long-running annual adjudicated competition. Students of all ages get the opportunity to showcase their talents and receive invaluable feedback that will further their musical education and progress. Over eight inspiring days, participants, judges, volunteers, and audiences come together to celebrate the dedication and creativity of young musicians across the community.
Brantford Native Housing
Hotinohsioni Inc., also known as Brantford Native Housing (BNH), serves as the primary Indigenous-led housing provider in Brantford and the surrounding rural communities of Brant County. Complementary programs address the social, cultural, and practical needs of community members, including food provision and nutrition support. Brant Community Foundation is proud to support the expansion of BNH’s Food Security Project, helping create greater access to essential resources and strengthening community well-being.
Camp Quality
Having fun, making friends, learning and laughing… Camp Quality offers all the invaluable benefits of a first-rate camping experience to children and youth coping with cancer and blood disorders. With support from the Brant Community Foundation, this summer three local youth will spend a week participating in social and recreational activities and enjoying the amenities at Camp Quality’s Southern Ontario location.
