Community Support Fund

About the Community Support Fund

The Community Support Fund (CSF) is a key initiative by YYC Data Society to empower local data communities by providing financial assistance for their projects and events. The CSF is aimed at grassroots organizations and community leaders who are driving innovation and collaboration within Calgary's data ecosystem. With an allocated pool of capital managed by the CSF Steering Committee, our goal is to support impactful projects that enhance the community's growth and sustainability. By putting resources directly into the hands of those who best understand their needs, we strive to foster a vibrant, inclusive, and supportive data community.

We used the funds to support our PyData meetups, helping to provide food to drive attendance.

The YYC Data Society is committed to re-investing in community, and the Community Support Fund is an important tool in our long-term vision.
