Free to Play

Eligible activities include temporarily closing streets for outdoor play and hosting traditional land-based activities. Delivered nationally through local community foundations.
Canada Post Community Foundation Grants
Annual granting program making a positive impact on the lives of Canadian children and youth aged 21 and under. Offers project grants, capped grants for schools and recreation facilities, and larger Signature Grants for national organizations, plus an Indigenous Truth and Reconciliation Signature Grant awarded annually.
Jumpstart Community Development Grants — Programming Support
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.
