Support
For families that need a financial hand with registration, equipment and/or transportation costs. The Canadian Tire Jumpstart program and KidSport program are both available to families that need financial assistance with the costs of sports for their children. Please contact the club if you have any questions.
Jumpstart Program
Jumpstart is a national charity with a commitment to local communities. Organized sports connect kids to their communities. Canadian Tire Corporation recognized this and makes sure that money raised stays where it is donated.
Canadian Tire Corporation is Jumpstart’s biggest supporter as it funds all the general administrative expenses of Jumpstart, which means 100% of customer donations go directly to help kids in need.
KidSport
KidSport is a national not-for-profit organization that provides financial assistance for registration fees and equipment to kids aged 18 and under. Through a confidential application process we provide grants so they can play a season of sport. Nationally, KidSport is comprised of a network of 11 provincial/territorial KidSport chapters and 178 community KidSport chapters.
Since its creation in 1993, over 450,000 kids across the country have been given the chance to play sport through KidSport grants and sport introduction programming.
Athletics for Kids
At Athletics4Kids, we believe in the power of sport to transform a child’s life. Whether it’s for a single season or for years to come, we believe every kid in BC should have the chance to play.
Our mission is to ensure all BC kids can participate in organized sports by supporting families in need with financial assistance.
Athletics4Kids funds BC Children, who are currently enrolled in school, up to $450 a year for sports registration.
