Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

UOSSM - Gaza Crisis - 2025

Agreement Number:

7469701 P015877001

Duration: from Aug 7, 2025 to Mar 31, 2027
Description:

June 2025 –The health situation in Gaza remains critical due to ongoing hostilities which led to high numbers of casualties, injuries, and mass displacement. Health facilities are operating under severe constraints, with limited supplies, damaged infrastructure, and staff working under extreme pressure. The already fragile healthcare system is struggling to meet the growing needs, particularly in trauma care, maternal and child health, and infectious and chronic disease management. Ongoing support is crucial to sustain and restore urgent medical care and essential healthcare services.

With GAC's support, Union of Medical Care and Relief Organizations (UOSSM) helps reduce suffering, maintain human dignity, and save lives in communities experiencing humanitarian crises in Gaza.
Project activities include: (1) providing emergency health services especially for conflict-related injuries; (2) providing primary healthcare services including sexual and reproductive healthcare and mental health, maternal nutrition, and mental health and psychosocial support; (3) providing gender-based violence (GBV) medical and counselling services; and (4) distributing hygiene and dignity kits to displaced women and adolescent girls.

Expanding Access and Capacity for Supportive Outreach Services (SOS)

Agreement Number:

2526-HQ-000096

Duration: from Aug 7, 2025 to Mar 31, 2027
Description:

This project aims to enhance the impact of the Supportive Outreach Services (SOS) program, which focuses on individuals with mental health and addiction issues, offering a range of life-saving interventions such as overdose reversal, mental health support, addiction support services, distribution of naloxone and other harm reduction items. It will expand the coverage area in Grey County, increasing staffing to operate seven days a week instead of four, introducing peer support services, and integrating an Indigenous navigator role to extend its reach to support the diverse needs of the community. This expansion will allow SOS to provide more comprehensive and culturally appropriate care to vulnerable populations, including those affected by mental health issues, addiction, homelessness, and disconnection from essential services.
