Instructions

Only fill in the light blue shaded areas in each applicable fiscal year tab for your project.  The rest of the template will auto-populate.

Contribution Sources

You must list the source of any cash or in-kind contributions to the project. This would be the name of the person/ organization/ government who are contributing the cash or in-kind resources to the project. Provide the contribution amount beside the sources name. Note: Cash and in-kind contributions are separated.

Cash and In-kind contributions must be separated by the amounts contributed from an Other Government Source, and Non-Government Source. Government sources include federal, provincial and municipal governments, as well as Police Services and other government funded entities. Ensure the source of funding listed is the complete legal name of the organization contributing to the project.

Cash and In-kind Contributions

You must specify if a contribution source is cash or in-kind. Generally, a cash contribution would appear in the organization’s ledger as revenue (cheque, transfer of funds, direct deposit, etc.).

Only include cash/in-kind contributions that are confirmed. This would be any contribution another source has indicated they will provide when/if the project takes place. If contributions from other sources are not confirmed, they should not be included in the budget.

Budget Items

Fill in project expenses under the appropriate category (Consultation fees, Training , etc).  For example, a contract with a consultant would be under consultation fees and Workshops would be under Training or Educational Fees.

Note: Ensure budget items listed are EXPENDITURES not ACTIVITIES.  An example of an expenditure is Travel for "staff travel for Community of Practice meeting".  An example of an activity is "Community of Practice".

In the details section provide the details for each budget category used. For example, number of staff and rate of pay, number of and cost per unit, and etc. Justification for the relevance of the expense for the project can also be added where necessary.

Important Note: Total Funding (cell I36) must equal Total Expenditures (cell I74)

Hospitality in Aboriginal contexts, based on the following criteria:

In Aboriginal communities in Canada, a great deal of the work that is done takes place in a communal setting - often, this takes the form of gatherings or ceremonies that have practical uses as well as fulfilling some of the spiritual and cultural needs of participants. Often more can be accomplished during a day-long gathering or ceremony than can be done in several meetings that take place on a regular basis or back to back. This is true for a number of reasons:

  • events take place that interrupt meetings
  • meetings are necessary for the purpose of doing business with government but not considered culturally important
  • gatherings and ceremonies involve more than just professionals and garner widespread community buy-in and support

Due to the length of time taken for gatherings and cultural ceremonies, hospitality such as food is considered an essential element of the day. Food has also been traditionally significant amongst all Aboriginal peoples in Canada. The sharing of food with participants, particularly at events with a cultural or spiritual element, is seen as an integral and important part of Aboriginal protocol and culture.

To eliminate hospitality from community-based projects that are founded on traditional knowledge and experiences would be taking away from an integral part of what makes the process unique. Culturally, it would show great disrespect to the participants, which would jeopardize future relationships. As a result, for Aboriginal communities in Canada only, hospitality will be considered as an eligible expense for:

  • gatherings
  • feasts
  • ceremonies
  • circles

Hospitality in this case takes the form of food and drink but does not include alcohol.

9 Shipping charges, postage, licences, and other fees; and
10 Printing and distribution activities.

# Ineligible Expenditures
1 Capital costs, such as land, buildings, vehicles and most other capital costs (more than $5,000 per acquisition);

3 Core or ongoing operating expenses; 
4 Amortization and interest (cost of borrowing);
5 Travel for delegates or participants not directly related to the project, invited by others, or voluntarily attending; and
6 Profit, defined as an excess of revenues over expenditures.
