We invite all heritage organizations in Newfoundland and Labrador to fill out our Heritage Funding Survey!

This fall, members of our province’s heritage community initiated a letter-writing campaign, encouraging everyone to contact the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador to highlight funding shortfalls experienced by heritage organizations every year. The letter included a request that CEDP funding be increased to reflect increasing demand on the program, as well as an increase in the cost of living. CEDP funding has not increased since 2007 when the minimum wage was $7.00/hour.

Our next step is to gather data about our heritage organizations so we can prepare to educate various levels of government and municipalities on the importance of the heritage sector and to advocate for a much-needed injection of funds into the CEDP program.

To achieve this we need your help and that of every heritage organization in the province. Please complete this short survey, so our information will accurately reflect the work being performed by our heritage organizations and the value it brings to our province: https://forms.gle/4jh39UYhC1ERKZiS7
