The Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) is an agency of the Government of Ontario, and one of Canada’s largest granting foundations. With a budget of over $120 million, OTF awards grants to some 700 projects every year to build healthy and vibrant Ontario communities.
OTF Grant Review Team (GRT) members are appointed to review and recommend projects for funding in Ontario's communities. Based on where they live, volunteers are appointed to one of 16 geographically based Grant Review Teams (catchments). Volunteers are stewards of public funds. They deliver criteria-based assessments that inform grant-making decisions across Ontario.
Grant Review Team Members are responsible for individually assessing and providing recommendations in support of projects throughout Ontario. Grant application reviews and assessments are done by Grant Review Team members in OTF’s online system.
