We're excited to announce that applications are now open for the Fall Community Salmon Program!

The Pacific Salmon Foundation’s Community Salmon Program (CSP) is a grantmaking program that supports volunteer and community–driven organizations that undertakes salmon conservation and restoration projects in British Columbia and the Yukon.

CSP offers two streams of grant funding: Short and Standard Form applications. Applicants are limited to one Short Form application (single-item requests not exceeding $2,500) per funding round, and unlimited Standard Forms (requests over $2,500). Please note that CSP will pay up to 50% of the total value of each project and must be matched by other funds, donations, and volunteer labour. 

NOTICE: This is a limited call for applications, as all grant funds must be spent and final reports submitted by March 31st, 2025 to comply with the terms of a PSF funding partnership agreement. Extensions will not be possible, and any unspent funds will need to be returned. We recommend submitting grant requests for smaller, readily purchasable materials or services that can be deployed immediately upon receipt of the grant.

We apologize for any inconvenience. If your project cannot be completed in time, please consider applying for our Spring 2025 round when the CSP grant process will return to normal. To receive assistance with your project or the application system, please contact us well in advance of the closing date.  

Please contact us to learn more about applying to the Community Salmon Program: rmartins@psf.ca or 604-664-7664 x1002.
