Preserving Heritage, Inspiring the Future — Together.
Our Manitoba Hellenic Cultural Centre has been a community hub for over 15 years. It’s now time to upgrade and expand to serve future generations better. With the Arts, Culture and Sports in the Community Provincial Government matching grant, every dollar you donate will be doubled (up to $300,000).

A warm, inviting place to gather — just like in Greece. A comfortable lounge area that brings people together through culture, conversation, and coffee.
Caterer’s Kitchen
Fully equipped to serve events and fundraisers. Ideal for caterers and community functions. Supports local events and brings the community around the table.
Cultural Displays
Dedicated areas showcasing Hellenic art, history, and community contributions. Preserving heritage and passing on traditions through permanent displays.
DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT WITH A MATCHING GRANT
Grant Match Examples
Your charitable donations may qualify for an
income tax credit, lowering your net cost.
However, the full donation amount is considered for the matching grant, making the total contribution nearly four times your net cost.
For instance, a $1,000 donation can reduce your taxes by $422, costing you $578. The $1,000 donation will be matched by the grant, providing $2,000 for the renovation project.
TAX SAVINGS
“You will receive a tax receipt for your donation, which may result in tax benefits.”
Every donation is matched dollar for dollar — and eligible for a tax credit, significantly reducing your net cost.
