Year One of the Ontario Trillium Grant is almost here!
BCAN has made many strides and we have accomplished a number of projects within Peel. We could have not done this alone. Not only is our organization assisted by the Ontario Trillium Multi-Year Grant, we have managed to collaborate with a number of thriving Peel organizations that have allowed us all to bring out best skillsets to the table to create meaningful change and strategic partnership for the communities we serve.
Collaboration is a like a beautifully woven tapestry. The design is intricate and complex, the threads are binding and the result is a wonderful work of art for all to enjoy.
