Community Funding and Awards

Legion Capital Assistance Program

You can apply between 14 December 2023 and 14 February 2024.

The Legion Capital Assistance Program (LCAP) is intended to assist Royal Canadian Legions across Nova Scotia with capital upgrades to existing buildings used to house legion events and community activities.

The program will provide up to 50% of total eligible costs to a maximum of $10,000 for eligible projects. In-kind trade work may be considered as part of the organization's share.

Legions who received funding in 2022-2023 are eligible to apply, however their applications will only be reviewed if there is budget remaining after reviewing applications from those Legions who have not received funding in the past three years.
