Brandon-Souris MP Larry Maguire is putting out calls for local proposals for the New Horizons for Seniors Program.

The program provides funding for projects that encourage seniors to play an important role in their communities by volunteering, participating in and leading community activities.

The program also provides funds to help organizations make necessary modifications or repairs to their existing facilities.

Applicants are eligible to receive up to $25,000 per year.

The application period will close July 29, 2016.
