Three community groups in Oshawa receive capital grants from Ontario Trillium Foundation

Queen’s Park is earmarking funds for community groups in Oshawa through the Ontario Trillium Foundation.

The money is meant to help with various renovations.

Conseil des organismes Francophones de la région de Durham (COFRD) is getting $75,700.

COFRD is honoured to receive support from the Ontario Trillium Foundation for this important modernization project,” said Executive Director Boluva Massina. “With this funding, we will transform our resource room into a fully accessible digital public space — a hub for learning, skills development, and community connection. This investment will significantly enhance access to technology and training opportunities for all, especially those with limited digital resources. We extend our sincere thanks to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for helping us create a more inclusive and forward-looking environment for the entire community.

Oshawa Little Theatre is receiving $26,200.

We are incredibly grateful to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for their generous support,” said OLT’s Board of Directors in a joint statement. “This grant will allow us to make essential accessibility and technology upgrades to our theatre—starting with the installation of a new hearing assist system, updates to our wireless microphone system, and the replacement of outdated equipment in our projection booth. These improvements will not only enhance the theatre experience for individuals with hearing impairments but will also help us modernize our facilities to better serve our diverse and growing audience. With these upgrades, Oshawa Little Theatre is taking meaningful steps toward becoming a more inclusive, innovative, and accessible cultural hub for the entire Durham Region.”

Oshawa Senior Community Centres will get $157,900.

We are incredibly grateful to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for their generous support in helping us create a more inclusive and accessible space at our John Street Branch,” said Executive Director Kim Lepine. “These vital modifications ensure that our most vulnerable members feel safe, welcome, and empowered to participate fully in our programs and services. This investment strengthens our commitment to fostering a community where everyone belongs.”
