YHF Community Grants
To qualify for a grant from the YHF Commitment to Healthcare Community Fund, your community initiative’s primary purpose is to improve the provision of healthcare within the Tri-Counties and must meet the following criteria:
- be a registered charity or a recognized non-profit organization in Yarmouth, Shelburne, or Digby counties
- clearly enhance healthcare services, projects, or programs within the Tri-Counties
- clearly show future funding stability without the need for a repeat grant
- intend to use the grant to improve healthcare services, not to replace alternate sources of core funding from municipalities, or either the provincial or federal government
- align with the priorities of Nova Scotia Health
- come with a letter of endorsement from a qualified health services specialist (excluding elected officials)
Preference will be given to projects that:
- will only require a one-time contribution to their project or program
- are established and can show additional partners and resources beyond this grant
