Funding FAQ
Before you submit a project, read over our Donation and Sponsorship Policy to make sure it meets our criteria.
To submit a project, you’ll need to create an account on our platform. You’ll be able to use that account every time you apply for funding.
Once you’ve created your account, start an application for your project by answering the questions in as much detail as possible.
You can save your application and come back to it later. Re-read it carefully before submitting it, because once it’s submitted, the selection procedure will get underway and you won’t be able to make any more changes.
We review every application submitted via our online platform. You’ll receive an answer by email within six weeks. However, we ask that you submit your application at least 90 days before the start of your project or event. Applications that don’t respect this timeline will not be considered.
If your application is selected, a member of the Sollio Agriculture team will contact you to finalize the partnership and determine next steps.
Feel free to submit your project again if the situation changes or if you identify new synergies between your project and the guiding principles listed in our Donation and Sponsorship Policy. To increase the chances of having your project selected, be sure to read our Donation and Sponsorship Policy before you apply.
Sollio Agriculture does not consider applications:
From political parties and candidates
From partisan lobbies and special interest groups
From religious groups
From social clubs such as Rotary and Lions Clubs

For projects that already receive funding from Sollio Cooperative Group, Olymel, BMR, or member cooperatives
For projects due to start in less than 90 days
