Several not-for-profit organizations shared $284k in funding for renovations, new projects
A new funding announcement in honour of National Accessibility Week means $284,000 for five Sudbury projects, allowing them to create inclusive spaces for people with disabilities.
“Programs like this are instrumental to our continued efforts to create a more accessible work environment at Science North,” Ayre told the attendees. “We have new designated accessible parking spaces and a new ramp to help remove barriers for staff traveling into and throughout our center. This project will also allow for new accessible ramps and parking spaces at dynamic Earth, creating a safer, more enjoyable and inclusive Science Center experience.
“It's so important to create inclusive communities but so many organizations who want to do that are small, not-for-profit organizations that don't have very deep budgets,” she said. “That's why funding like this is so important, because it allows them to do the types of work that they want to do, whether it's a community garden, a church, a women's center, it runs the gamut on how and what inclusivity can mean.
