The province also announced a new program to support small and medium-sized museums and archives throughout Manitoba.  The new Heritage Trust program provides $5 million over three years to create endowment funds within local community foundations for Manitoba museums and archives.  The Heritage Trust program will provide a maximum of one provincial dollar for every two private dollars raised by qualifying heritage organizations. The program will create an incentive for communities to develop an endowment pool worth up to $15 million to support heritage projects across Manitoba.
