Making Summer Camp and Year-Round Programs Accessible The Financial Aid Options at CASMA Toronto

At CASMA Toronto, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to grow, explore, and thrive through sports and enrichment programs. Talent, curiosity, and potential should never be limited by financial circumstances.

That is why we highlight two trusted financial assistance programs that families can apply to in order to help make our programs more accessible within our community.

Canadian Tire Jumpstart Grants

Who it helps: Children ages 4 – 18 from families facing financial need.

What it covers: Grants can cover registration fees, equipment, and related program costs for eligible kids participating in sport and physical activity programs including CASMA camps and activities.

How much: Grants of up to about $300 per child per year are available and paid directly to CASMA for your child’s program.

KidSport Ontario Grants

Why These Financial Aid Options Matter

Both Canadian Tire Jumpstart and KidSport Ontario help reduce financial barriers so more children can benefit from the social, physical, and developmental advantages of CASMA’s programs from summer camp fun to year-round enrichment and sport experiences. These partnerships reflect CASMA’s commitment to inclusivity and community support.
