Community Environmental Projects Grant Program (CEPGP)
CEPGP is designed to help the City of Ottawa meet its environmental objectives. City programs include solid-waste diversion, water efficiency, wastewater, the water environment, sustainable development and broader global climate issues. The program provides funding for small-scale, community-based initiatives managed by non-profit organizations interested in the improvement and preservation of our environment. A total of $50,000 is available each year - subject to City Council approval.
