Now accepting
applications
We are pleased to announce that the MSIFN Maada'ookii Committee will now be accepting applications for assistance!
Following in the footsteps of the Baagwating Community Association (BCA) which dissolved in 2016, the MSIFN Maada'ookii Committee continues to help organizations, communities, and individuals with charitable giving. In keeping with the spirit of the Committee's culture, Maada'ookii was chosen as it translates from Ojibwe to mean, 'they distribute gifts, distribute something, shares something with others'.
In an attempt to streamline all requests from individuals, authorized representatives, organizations, and sponsorship of organized sports, we have created three application forms available in a fillable format for your convenience. Each form consists of a checklist and guidelines of what the MSIFN Maada'ookii Committee would like to review when considering a request for assistance. Due to the high volume in applications received, only completed applications will be presented to the Committee. Please note that if your request is approved by the MSIFN Maada'ookii Committee, those funds must be used within three (3) months of the approval date for the purpose intended or returned to the Committee for redistribution.
The MSIFN Maada'ookii Committee plans to meet once a month to review requests. The Meeting Schedule, attached below, will be updated as needed, but may be subject to change without notice. Please send in requests at least 3 working days prior to the next scheduled meeting for inclusion, or it may not be presented until the next month's meeting. It is recommended, that before completing an application, that you visit this webpage for the most recent application forms, and review any changes to our processes.
Please choose the appropriate form based on the following categories of your request:
Form for Authorized Representatives, i.e. Occupational Therapists, Social/Case Workers, Support Personnel, etc.
Form for representatives of charitable organizations/events, not-for-profits, businesses, etc.
Form for sports teams or individual participants in organized sports.
After you complete filling out your form, please send your requests by email:
