JumpStart Helping Children Participate

Posted: May 16, 2011

 JumpStart helps remove financial barriers to children and youth wanting to take part in a sporting activity such as soccer, swimming,baseball and hockey.  The program helps with registration fees and equipment costs up to $300 per qualifying child.  Boys & Girls Club makes the payment directly to the group or organization coordinating the sport or recreational activity on behalf of the qualifying child. Since each child’s financial needs are unique, Canadian Tire Jumpstart’s contribution can be made for equipment and/or registration. Spring Allocation coming up soon….deadline is May 27, 2011. The application is attached; please share it with your staff and help us reach those kids who really need a “sporting chance”!  Applications are to be sent to:Boys & Girls Club115 Maher St Miramichi, NB  E1N 4B4 or FAX to:  778-1855
