Premier Christy Clark made good on her campaign promise to restore $15 million in grants to community and sports organizations Thursday, promising more to come.

The new funds represent less than half of what was cut two years ago when proceeds from B.C. casinos and lotteries were cut. Clark announced in Vancouver that the latest funds will bring more than 500 organizations back up to "historical funding levels," including youth arts and culture groups, community service clubs, fairs, festivals, museums and organizations involved in community education like parent support services.
