The TELUS Indigenous Communities Fund (ICF) offers $5,000 to $25,000 grants for Indigenous-led social, health and community programs. These grants support Indigenous leaders and community groups to lead projects related to health, education, land and water preservation, community building, and cultural and language revitalization.

The fall application period opens on September 10, 2025, and will remain open until October 9, or until the first 200 applications are received.

Funding is available for projects focused on, but not limited to:

  • Health, mental health and well-being
  • Access to education and resources
  • Preservation of the land and water
  • Community building and enhancement
  • Intergenerational language and cultural revitalization
    – Preference may be given to programs where technology is being used to advance reconciliation.

Past recipients include projects supporting food security programs.
