KidSport Calgary & Area
We are a 100% community funded charity focused on providing sport registration fee assistance and equipment to qualified (low income) families so their kids are able to access, participate in and learn from organized sport. We use local donations, fundraising events and sponsorship to provide the financial assistance that under resourced kids in our community need and deserve. We proudly support kids in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, Chestermere, High River, Rocky View County, Strathmore, Black Diamond and Tuner Valley. These dollars are invested back into our local economy, our sport community and into our future - the kids who need us most today!
