The Milton Community Fund is officially open for 2026 applications, marking 25 years of supporting local not-for-profit organizations that enrich the town’s artistic, cultural, and recreational life.
Until Monday, July 28th, eligible groups can apply for a share of roughly $425,000 in funding to support programs, events, and services scheduled for 2026.
“The Milton Community Fund plays a vital role in supporting organizations that unite and uplift our community,” says Steve Palmer, Director, Recreation & Culture, Town of Milton. “We are proud to provide resources that help build connections, strengthen partnerships, and contribute to making Milton a true place of possibility for everyone.”
Since its creation by Milton Council in 1999, the Fund has distributed over $8.1 million to local organizations. In 2024, $433,168 supported 44 community groups. The Fund is made possible through proceeds from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) via Milton’s role as host of Elements Casino Mohawk.
