What we funded
Every year, the Foundation funds programs requested by Optimist clubs across Canada. Here is how that money is used.
- Club grants, up to $1,000 per club, once a year
- Outsourcing program, the Foundation issues the tax receipt for a club fundraising activity
- Our current outsourcing projects, the projects supported this year
- JOI grants, grants for Junior Optimist clubs
- Spread Relief Program, support for clubs facing hardship
- Scholarships, the three Optimist International scholarship contests
The winners of each year’s programs are announced in the news: 2023-2024 club grant winners.
