Applications for the Revitalization Extensive Project Fund have now closed for 2023. For further details, please contact your Revitalization Coordinator or email neighbourhoodrevitalization@edmonton.ca.
We have great news! We heard the request from our community partners and we are now offering funding between $20,001 to a maximum of $75,000 subject to available funding.
Note: For this application period, we will be accepting phased applications. You may apply for up to $75, 000, and submit a 2nd application for a 2nd phase of the same project, for a maximum of $150, 000.
This larger value would enable the trans-formative projects that Revitalization areas need and allow the City to further leverage the meaningful community investments being made.
In order to be eligible to apply for the REPF, organizations must:
The Extensive Project Fund is guided by core criteria that will ensure that grant resources are used efficiently and effectively and are aligned with Revitalization objectives.
The core criteria are complementary to each area’s Revitalization Strategy and will be used as a frame to evaluate the impact of the proposals. These criteria will form the basis for the application assessment process.
Each Revitalization area has goals created with local partners and community members to set out for the success of the Revitalization Strategy. Applications will be reviewed for alignment with these Strategy goals during the preliminary assessment by the Revitalization Coordinator.
We invite you to contact the Revitalization Coordinator to learn more about the specific criteria applied to the area of your project.

The application process may take up to 8 weeks from the end of the intake period before payment is processed. Applicants will be informed if the project has been accepted to advance to agreement development within 4-6 weeks from the end of the intake period.
These criteria provide a framework to evaluate and distribute the grants, as well as set metrics to review grant performance. Grant applicants must demonstrate that they meet one or more criteria in order to demonstrate need and ensure the effectiveness of the funding.
Applications will be evaluated based on the following:
To guarantee fairness and transparency, under the new criteria all participants should apply for the funding within the identified intake schedule of September 15 - October 15. We are aware that some community partners have previously presented some information but only new applications will be considered.
