Canadian Women & Sport: 2022 WISE Fund Criteria and Timeline Announced
A lack of funding dedicated to creating equitable opportunities for women and girls to participate and lead in sport is a barrier to achieving gender equity in Canada. Since 2004, Canadian Women & Sport has awarded over $300,000 in grants through our WISE Fund to leaders and organizations across Canada to help address this gap.
With the support of Sport Canada, the 2022 WISE Fund will again grant 45 organizations $2500 to advance gender equity in Canadian sport.
Applications for the 2022 grant will open on Tuesday, October 12th and close on Tuesday, November 2nd, 2021. To learn more about the criteria of the grant, visit our WISE Fund Application Process page.
