B.C. Interior Community Foundation supports a broad mix of community, arts, heritage, health, and youth-serving organizations across the BC Interior, with a clear emphasis on Kamloops-area institutions and place-based community funds. Its largest grants often go to endowed or legacy funds that sustain local cultural organizations, scholarships, and community initiatives over time, suggesting a long-term community-building approach rather than one-off project funding. The foundation also backs sports legacy funds, child and youth advocacy, and local disaster/community resilience efforts in smaller Interior communities.

Makes modest-to-medium grants drawn from donor-advised and field-of-interest funds, with a strong preference for endowed legacy funds and community funds that generate ongoing local impact. Giving is geographically concentrated in the BC Interior, especially Kamloops and nearby smaller communities, and often supports multi-year sustainability rather than only direct program expenses.
Align requests to local BC Interior needs and show how the project will build long-term community capacity, preserve heritage, or expand access to arts, youth, or recreation. If possible, connect your organization to a named fund or community served by the foundation and emphasize sustainability, legacy, and measurable local benefit.
