Climate Disaster Response Fund

The Climate Disaster Response Fund is a one-time grant opportunity that will provide limited resources to heritage focused organizations with heritage resources damaged by recent climate and natural disasters in British Columbia.


About the Fund

Heritage BC, in consultation with our partners the BC Museums Association (BCMA) and the BC Heritage Emergency Response Network (BCHERN) have determined that there is a need to address immediate conservation of heritage places impacted by recent climate disasters. 

Heritage BC recognizes that offering emergency assistance is a first step in assessing and addressing future challenges and the need for long-term climate adaptation and support.

All applications will be processed on a first come, first served basis. The total allocation of funds is $75,000 with a maximum award of $8,000. Heritage BC reserves the right to manage each request internally. All projects must indicate the immediacy and urgency of the issues, an approximate timeline for scope of work, and a feasible project within the framework of this grant.

Please Note: The Climate Disaster Response Fund is currently on pause. We will announce when it reopens.

As an organization of provincial scope, Heritage BC recognizes that its members, and the local history and heritage they seek to preserve, occupy the lands and territories of B.C.’s Indigenous peoples. Heritage BC asks its members and everyone working in the heritage sector to reflect on the places where they reside and work, and to respect the diversity of cultures and experiences that form the richness of our provincial heritage.
