Supports children and youth from low to moderate income families by covering costs of extra curricular activities such as sports, arts, and creative programs. We focus on helping kids who would otherwise be falling through the cracks because either their parent or their program doesn’t qualify for other funding options such as KidSport. Application outcomes are currently decided on a case by case basis by the Board of Directors. Access is provided through trusted community referrals, ensuring dignity, privacy, and equitable opportunity.
