Get involved with Athletics4Kids
Participating in amateur sports holds a special place in many of our lives. It was where we built our confidence, met our best friends, and dreamed our biggest dreams. We remember the joy of cheering with our team, the exhilaration of a match, and the satisfaction of mastering a new skill.
While we had these opportunities, there are thousands of kids across BC who are on the sidelines because they cannot afford to play sports. With your help, we can ensure that every kid has the opportunity to play. Here's how you can join the team and make that happen…
JOIN US AT AN EVENT
Events are a huge part of what makes Athletics4Kids tick. From our annual fishing derby to our gala, there are many ways to get involved and give by having fun and connecting with your community.
GIVE MONTHLY
The Fitness Family, our community of monthly donors, provides stability and encouragement for our team as we seek to get as many kids into sport as possible. For just $17 a month, you can provide one child with a Sport4Life Grant every year and get them off the bench and into the game.
GIVE TODAY
For the families we serve, the Sport4Life Grants are an essential part of ensuring that their kids can stay in the game. The average grant we provide is $200 per year. These grants are only possible because of our generous donors. From private individual donors to companies and foundations, it takes a large community of passionate people who believe in the power of sport to ensure that we can say "Yes!" to every child who wants to play.
