Documentary Heritage Communities Program

The 2025-2026 call for proposals is now open

Eligible organizations are invited to submit their application by January 9, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. (PST).

Every year we provide funding to documentary heritage organizations across the country. This helps ensure that Canada's continuing memory is documented, preserved and available to the public.

Organizations can apply for funding during our annual call for proposals in the fall.

Consult our past recipients and current recipients pages for the complete list of projects funded by the DHCP.
