\n\t\t\tKidSport Greater Victoria\t<\/h4>\n\t

With demand higher than ever, we are busy! We are truly appreciative of those who are in a position to help us keep helping more kids to access the sports they love.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Please consider joining our efforts by donating “A Dollar a Day So a Kid Can Play”<\/a> – that’s a $30 monthly gift, which over the course of the year adds up to our current average level of support per applicant child.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

KidSport Greater Victoria provides grants to help cover the costs of registration fees so that all kids aged 18 and under in Greater Victoria can play a season of sport.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our chapter accepts applications and administers grants of up to $700 per child\/year<\/strong>, for children and youth who live in any of the communities of the Capital Regional District. If you live outside of Greater Victoria please contact the Provincial Office<\/a> to find your nearest chapter, or to get support through the Provincial Fund.<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAPPLY FOR A GRANT\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n
