Free support for Canadian non-profits and organizations

Community engagement, knowledge translation, and more!

We are offering FREE SUPPORT for one organization or team to help with community engagement, knowledge translation, or something else! We understand that even with the desire to be community-driven, organizations sometimes don’t have the capacity or resources to engage in a meaningful way, and we want to help!

How can we help?

We could work with you and your team to: 

  • Develop a community engagement or knowledge translation plan

  • Facilitate an engagement or consultation session 

  • Provide strategic council or advice

  • Host a training/capacity-building session

  • Advise on how to recruit community members

  • Build a public-friendly questionnaire

  • Create a knowledge translation product (e.g. infographic)

  • Set up a community advisory council

  • Reach and involve more diverse communities

  • Design an evaluation framework

  • Or another idea you come up with!

Amplify is committed to providing approximately 60 hours of work or up to $15,000 of services.

Applications close October 30, 2026 at 5:00pm ET.

Why are we offering free services?

We believe community engagement and knowledge translation matter, even when resources are limited. We are providing free services to build new relationships, support important work that is underfunded, and help bring underrepresented voices into decision-making.

Eligibility Criteria and Expectations of the Applicant

  • You are a Canadian-based non-profit, community-based organization,  or publicly-funded team

  • You can provide dedicated staff time to work with us

  • You have leadership support for the work proposed

  • The work can be done either remotely or within the Greater Toronto Area

  • The work will ideally be completed by June 2027

Priority will be given to organizations who may not otherwise have the resources to do this work, and Indigenous-led organizations or organizations serving equity-deserving populations.
