Ranging from $25,000 to $500,000, these grants focus on watershed protection and/or access to safe drinking water and are available to local, regional, national or trans-border organizations for projects in any of the countries in which RBC is located, including Canada, the United States, the Caribbean and the UK.

The 2010 window for Leadership Grants under the RBC Blue Water Project is now open. Successful grant applicants will be notified in June, 2010.

We thank everyone who applied for 2009 funding. We received 159 applications to support initiatives that protect watersheds and ensure access to clean drinking water around the world. Grant applicants that are not successful in 2009 may apply for funding in 2010. The next deadline for Leadership Grant applications is Friday March 12, 2010.
