JuMp StArT!


1 in 3 Canadian families can't afford to enrol their kids in organized sports.  Let's encourage our customers to join us on Saturday, May 28th to help celebrate Jumpstart Day.

On this day, Canadian Tire will donate $1.00 on behalf of all customers that shop at the store to help kids in financial need participate in sports and recreation.  To date, Canadian Tire Jumpstart has helped give more than 315,000 kids in Canada the chance to play.

Canadian Tire Jumpstart is a community-based charitable program that helps kids aged 4 - 18 in financial need participate in organized sport and recreation such as hockey, dance, soccer and swimming, so they can develop important life skills, self esteem and confidence.

On Saturday, May 28th, Canadian Tire and Dealers will help our Chapter members fundraise by holding events such as car washes and barbecues!  These efforts will give kids a sporting chance!
