What is Jumpstart?

Jumpstart Charities gives kids a sporting chance.

Kids aged 4 to 18 years from families in financial need can receive funding to help with registration fees.

Participating in sport helps kids develop physical and social skills. It helps build self-esteem. By helping kids get into the game, we’re equipping them with determination. And we’re giving them confidence.

Does my child qualify?

Families must meet financial need criteria in order to qualify for Jumpstart funding. Jumpstart follows Revenue Canada’s Low Income Cut-offs (LICOs) which are based on a family’s size, the size of their community and the total family unit income (before tax).

Where do I apply?

Jumpstart funding application forms are available online at www.whiterockcity.ca and at each of our recreation centres:

Kids • Teens Jesse: Land ’n Sea Camp participant Jesse was super-excited to start his first Land ’n Sea Camp and make new friends in his new country.

Two years and six camps later, he still loves it all: the beach games in the summer, the ice skating and musical chairs and soccer in the winter. But his “favourite favourite” is drawing and colouring pictures of sea animals he visits at Vancouver Aquarium. “You get to do so many fun things and the teachers are so nice.” See page 13 for Land ‘n Sea Camp 2018!
