Jumpstart Program
One in three Canadian families cannot afford to enrol their
children in sport or recreation activities. That means that many
kids are missing out.
Canadian Tire Jumpstart is dedicated to removing
barriers, so children can participate in organized sport and
recreation.
We see it as equipping kids for life, because participation in
organized sport and recreation increases a child’s chance for
success in life.
They discover and participate. They gain self-confidence. They
develop self-esteem. They learn leadership skills. Their lives
become richer. This is the power of Canadian Tire Jumpstart.
We try to manage the funds we receive so that we can get as many children as possible enrolled in a sport or activity at least once per year. We have many partners in the community that help us reduce the costs or provide spots for kids when our funding runs out.
