September 2025
The CCFOWR values community and has a responsibility to offer a "hand up", empowering the life journey of the marginalized and vulnerable within the Region of Waterloo, with a focus on youth. We believe in inclusion and equity and alignment with the 7 Social Teachings of the Catholic Church. We are committed to cooperating and collaborating with community partners in all sectors to support and evolve common goals.
In our 2025 Program the organization will again address unique school, parish and community needs.
Annual Grants Program: Our program launched on September 24. The application process is simple via a fillable PDF that you'll remit by email along with any relevant attachments you'll have noted in the application.

The status of the application will be communicated to applicants in December 2025 and the grant must be claimed by June 30, 2026.
