TT$100,000 for Community Organisations

Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago – 11 May 2026 – The Digicel Foundation, in partnership with Shell Trinidad and Tobago, invites applications for the 2026 Extraordinary Projects Impacting Communities (EPIC) Grant, an annual initiative designed to empower civil society organisations to drive meaningful, sustainable change in their communities.

Now in its tenth year, the EPIC Grant continues to support innovative, community-led solutions across Trinidad and Tobago. For 2026, TT$100,000 in funding will be awarded to ten (10) successful projects focused on three key thematic areas: Environmental Sustainability, Resource-based Livelihoods, and Technology/Digitalisation.

Registered non-profit organisations with impactful, forward-thinking ideas aligned to these themes are encouraged to apply. The programme seeks projects that are practical, scalable, and capable of delivering long-term benefits to communities.

Since its inception, the EPIC Grant has supported 170 projects nationwide, helping organisations implement initiatives that strengthen resilience, create opportunities, and improve quality of life. The programme has been further strengthened through a landmark three-year partnership between the Digicel Foundation and Shell Trinidad and Tobago, representing a combined investment of TT$3.8 million.
