Feds fund housing Return to sport grants
The federal government will provide more than $6.6 million to support the construction of 26 homes in Waterloo Region. Among the projects are two operated by The Working Centre in Kitchener that will create 18 units for newcomers to Canada and racialized people and one operated by YW Kitchener-Waterloo, providing eight units for women and their children fleeing domestic violence.
With some $70,000 matching contribution by the Home Hardware Return to Sport Matching Grant, more than 500 youth sports teams got back in the game this fall after being sidelined by COVID-19, the company announced this week.
