Another Trillium grant for KCCC

Another Trillium grant for KCCC

Kalayaan Cultural Community Centre (KCCC) will soon have its first paid staff. The Ontario Trillium Foundation has approved a multi-year funding to hire a Coordinator and an assistant who will work with volunteers in support of the various programs and activities that KCCC offers to the public. The grant of $141,700 will be used to pay a full-time Coordinator and a part-time assistant in the next four years. A job posting for the positions will be out shortly and applications will be received within the next two weeks. A hiring committee has been appointed by the President, Mama Ching Quejas to interview applicants. Only selected applicants will be communicated with and called for interview.

This multi-year grant is the third given by the Ontario Trillium Foundation to the Kalayaan Cultural Community Centre. The first one was to fund a Board Governance Seminar. The second one was a capital grant for the renovation of the Centre’s multi-purpose hall. This third one will provide salaries for staff to help manage the operations of KCCC more efficiently including fundraising that is expected to eventually make the organization self-sufficient. The funding is in graduated amounts for four years after which KCCC is expected to be able to generate sufficient funds on its own. The President says that a full-time paid Coordinator is necessary because most of the board members are young executives with young families and while they have brilliant ideas, their jobs and their families are their priorities and there has to be someone to execute/implement and coordinate the programs and activities of the Centre full-time especially the fundraising events.

The KCCC is grateful to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for providing this multi-year grant.
