Program Purpose
The LFIF Program aims to support locally-driven projects that include a production element and to improve community food security through the purchase and installation of infrastructure/equipment that will increase the availability and accessibility of local, nutritious, and culturally-appropriate food for equity-deserving groups, particularly Indigenous and Black communities. The Small Scale Projects component will provide grant funding between $25,000 and $100,000 to support projects that aim to address local food security priorities through the purchase and installation of one or a few pieces of infrastructure/equipment.
Program Purpose (French)
Le programme du FIAL vise à appuyer les projets locaux qui comprennent un élément de production et à améliorer la sécurité alimentaire communautaire par l’achat et l’installation d’infrastructures et d’équipements qui augmenteront la disponibilité et l’accessibilité à des aliments locaux, nutritifs et culturellement appropriés pour les groupes qui méritent l’équité, en particulier les communautés autochtones et noires. Le volet Projets à petite échelle fournira du financement sous forme de subventions entre 25 000 $ et 100 000 $ pour appuyer des projets qui visent à répondre aux priorités locales en matière de sécurité alimentaire par l’achat et l’installation d’une ou de quelques pièces d’infrastructure ou d’équipement.
