Jumpstart Accessibility Grants
JUMPSTART ACCESSIBILITY GRANTS
Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities is a national charity dedicated to helping kids overcome financial and accessibility barriers to sport and recreation in order to provide inclusive play for kids of all abilities. With an extensive, national network of more than 1,900 Community Partners and nearly 300 local chapters, Jumpstart helps eligible families cover the costs of registration, transportation, and equipment, and provides funding to selected organizations for recreational infrastructure and programming. Supported by the Canadian Tire Family of Companies, Jumpstart has enabled over 1.5 million Canadian kids to get in the game since 2005.
Jumpstart’s Play Finds A Way is a ground-breaking movement to help remove barriers for kids with disabilities. One of the programs within Play Finds A Way includes the Jumpstart Accessibility Grants, which are intended to support capital costs of construction and renovations related to improving physical accessibility to, and inclusivity in recreation facilities for children with disabilities in Canadian communities.
