Give Sport

We envision a Canada where all children have the opportunity to participate in sport.

National Movement with Local Action

Over 85% of Canadians agree that sports participation builds stronger communities, and so many Canadian childhoods were shaped by the connections and encouragement they found through organized sport. Because the KidSport program starts at one of 176 local or Provincial/Territory chapters, it has a genuine and tangible impact on real kids and our communities.

By giving to your local chapter we can make an impact in Northumberland County.

The Power of Sport is in how it shapes us. Remember the feeling of lacing up your skates? Pulling that jersey over your head for the 1st time? What about cheering on your teammates in the final seconds of the game? Imagine you never had the opportunity to make those memories.

Many kids don’t……..

The power of sport is in how it shapes you in those special moments; it’s in the memories you cherish today and the stories you tell tomorrow. It nurtures our growth and strengthens our communities. Now, you can help create lasting memories and fill the gap for other kids who want to play! Bring the power of sport Full Circle. Give the Gift of Sport… Today!

About KidSport

We believe that no kid should be left on the sidelines and all should be given the opportunity to experience the positive benefits of organized sports. KidSport™ provides support to children in order to remove financial barriers that prevent them from playing organized sport. Since 1993, KidSport has disbursed over $117M in grants and impacted over 999,000 children across Canada. The unfortunate reality remains that one in three Canadian kids do not participate in organized sport. We are committed to removing financial barriers that keep far too many of these kids on the sidelines, but we need your help. This holiday season marks KidSport’s 14th annual Give the Gift of Sport Campaign.  With your help, our goal this holiday season is to raise $1,000,000 to help even more kids get off the sidelines and into the game. Together, let’s Give the Gift of Sport, So ALL Kids Can Play!
