Through a partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, and a generous grant to UICF under its COVID Recovery and Resilience Program, a total of $200,000 is available to be granted to Indigenous communities that are qualified donees, or to charities or other eligible organizations that serve our communities.

This new funding can be used for two types of activity:

1. implementation of community connectivity subsidy programs to pay for internet costs and/or provide tablets and other technology for the education of students who cannot access the internet due to financial barriers;

and

2. to provide mental health and wellness supports to youth in this crisis.
