Indigenous Cultural Club Community Story

Community Story:
Sacred Heart High School Indigenous Cultural Club

Starting in the 2019-2020 school year, Sacred Heart High School in Yorkton began offering their Indigenous Cultural Club, creating a safe space where Indigenous students can express a pride for their culture and offer the opportunity to share this culture with their school community. The club meets once a week during lunch hour and is a flexible space for students to participate in the activities that interest them. An Elder is present at all meetings to share stories and answer any questions the participants have.

Celebrating 25 Years

The Community Initiatives Fund is celebrating twenty-five years of granting and leadership in Saskatchewan. A lot has changed over the past twenty-five years, but what hasn't changed is CIF's commitment to supporting community-based, community-led initiatives that enhance wellbeing for Saskatchewan citizens. 

As of March 31, 2021, CIF has approved a total of $175 million in grants to support the delivery of programming, services, commemorative events, and facility improvements in 510 communities across the province. Looking to the future, CIF will continue to support initiatives that enable participation in inclusive programming that supports the wellbeing of Saskatchewan individuals, families, and communities. 

Join us as we take a look back at CIF's longstanding history and reflect on the years to come. These milestones, relationships, and learnings are explored through the Celebrating 25 Years publication.

Scam Alert!

There is someone that we believe is from the US posing as staff from the Community Initiatives Fund. They contact people through Facebook claiming that the person’s name is listed on CIF’s ‘winners list’ and request bank information to transfer their winnings. If you are contacted by someone in regard to this, we urge you to contact your local authorities.

To be clear, this is NOT the Community Initiatives Fund. We ONLY fund incorporated Saskatchewan nonprofit organizations through a rigorous application and review process. We do not provide funds to individuals. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Executive Director, Tracey Mann at 306.780.9395.
