Since 2005, Jumpstart has been assisting Canadian
families overcome the financial barriers to accessing play and sport with the
generous support of the Canadian Tire family of companies. Now, with an
additional five-year $50 million commitment from Canadian Tire Corporation,
Jumpstart is expanding its mandate to help remove barriers for kids with
disabilities.
- Parasport Jumpstart Fund: A partnership between Jumpstart and the Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC), the fund helps families whose children have physical disabilities gain access to funds so they can participate in a variety of parasport activities. Learn more.
- Jumpstart Community Accessibility Grants: Grants support capital costs of construction and renovations related to improving physical accessibility to recreation facilities in Canadian communities. Learn more.
- Jumpstart Inclusive Playground Project: Jumpstart will work with selected municipalities in every province and territory to design and build inclusive playgrounds for kids of all abilities. Jumpstart’s goal is to ensure that these playgrounds become the standard for inclusive play, and create community spaces where kids of all abilities can play side-by-side. Learn more.
