Community Life Projects marks 110th initiative, aims to double by 2027
The Saskatoon‑based charity says it has funded 110 modest community requests and plans to double that number by 2027.
By Felo News Desk · Published
Community Life Projects, a Saskatoon charity that recently became federally registered, announced it has completed its 110th small‑scale grant, according to Digital Journal.
What happened
The organization tracks each grant on its website, listing the amount, date and, when supplied, a thank‑you note from the recipient. Since its inception, the charity has funded a range of requests, from $900 in groceries for Teen Challenge students in November 2021 to $1,750 for a winter feast at St. Mary’s Wellness and Education Centre in December 2022. Other documented projects include $1,000 for door prizes at the Cowessess First Nation Christmas dinner and a donation to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Saskatoon’s mental‑health outreach in July 2023.
What the reports add
Digital Journal notes that the charity’s website categorises projects under community and camps, education, health and poverty relief, and that each request is evaluated on its own terms, often aligning with cultural calendars of First Nations and Métis partners. The outlet also explains that the charity’s new charitable status, granted in January 2026, now allows it to issue official donation receipts under the Canada Revenue Agency’s Income Tax Act.
What was said
"We are on our 110th project now," said Barbara A. M. Romanow, co‑founder and Global Director of Community Life Projects, as reported by Digital Journal.
How it came about
The milestone arrives nine months after the organization secured federal charity registration. Romanow said the next target is to double the project count by the end of 2027, a goal that will rely on the same model of responding to specific, modest community requests.
