Eligibility
Every event or initiative funded under this program must be collective in nature. New applicants must submit a one-page Letter of Intent at least 6 months before project start date to determine eligibility. If the letter of intent is approved, the applicant must have an approved applicant profile in order to apply. FACTOR will contribute a percentage of the total eligible budget (see below) up to an annual or project maximum.
What to send

This letter should be emailed to CollectiveInitiatives@factor.ca and will be reviewed to determine eligibility. 19. Application Budgets and Funding requests must be clear what the requested FACTOR funding will be applied towards.
