Now accepting applications.
In Durham Region, one in four households is experiencing food insecurity. Through the Sustainable Food Security Fund (SFS), CSIP aims to address food insecurity and support long‑term, sustainable solutions. This stream supports innovative initiatives that enhance the sustainability and resilience of the local food security sector. Recognizing the critical role of community food programs, the fund prioritizes projects that promote system‑level improvements and durable food security outcomes for residents.
The SFS Fund is intended for projects where food security is the primary focus. Organizations whose proposed activities are primarily focused on food access, food systems, or food security are encouraged to consider applying.
