The Neepawa-Gladstone Co-op is now taking applications for its 2026 Communities in Full Colour program to help brighten up public spaces in Neepawa, Manitoba. This initiative provides local organizations with donated paint to fix up buildings and landmarks that are important to the community.
The program is open to registered charities, non-profits, and community groups. Youth sports and recreation associations are also encouraged to apply for the paint donations to refresh their facilities.
Unlike a cash grant, the Communities in Full Colour program specifically provides CO-OP Imagine Paint. This support is intended for projects like painting community halls, local rinks, or other shared spaces.
The program is a national initiative managed locally and supported by Federated Co-operatives Limited. It aims to help local groups maintain their assets through material support rather than monetary funding.
Interested organizations must submit their applications by March 31, 2026. The goal of the project is to help local groups improve the look of the areas where residents live, work, and play.
