Today Provincial Secretary Wayne Elhard announced a list of seven projects that will receive funding from the Francophone Community Infrastructure Fund (FCIF).
\"For more than a century the Fransaskois community has been an important aspect of our provincial identity,\" Elhard said. \"FCIF will help to ensure that the Fransaskois communities within our province remain strong and vibrant for generations to come.\"
The FCIF was created to provide funding for infrastructure projects within Saskatchewan\'s francophone community, providing $100,000 annually for capital projects that:
1) Enhance access to, and promote francophone culture and the French-language;
2) Enhance the quality and use of francophone community facilities; and
3) Create greater opportunities to hold events that support cultural vitality.
Funding may be provided for up to two-thirds of the required funds to a maximum of $50,000 per project. All recipients must contribute at least one-third of all eligible costs.
FCIF is managed by the Francophone Affairs Branch. Applications are accepted from registered charitable organizations, non-profits and co-operatives applying on behalf of the francophone community.
