Grants and Funding for Social Economy Organizations in Canada for 2026

The social economy in Canada is a vibrant sector comprised of non-profit organizations, charities, co-operatives, social enterprises, and other mission-driven entities dedicated to social or environmental objectives. Rather than maximizing profits for shareholders, these social purpose organizations reinvest surpluses into their missions and communities.
