Eligible funding recipients under the Canada 150 Fund include:
- Canadian not-for-profit organizations, including corporations, trusts, cooperatives and unincorporated associations;
- Canadian business corporations, including partnerships, trusts and joint ventures where projects are non-commercial in nature;

This fund will provide communities with small grants (from $100 to $15,000) to support local projects, distributed by participating community foundations from coast to coast to coast.
