Jumpstart Community Development Grants — Programming Support
About this grant
Supports organizations with the costs of delivering sport and active recreational programming for children and youth, with a focus on removing barriers to play. Two streams exist — Programming Support (this one) and Operational Support. Priority goes to families in financial need and children with disabilities, with further focus on communities facing intersecting barriers: BIPOC children and youth, and girls and young women.
