Financial Assistance
The following Financial Assistance Program websites are provided as a courtesy by Quinte Legion Lynx to help families in need of financial support in order for kids to be able to enroll in sport and be healthy.
​
It is important to note that applications must be done in advance or early in the season as the grants can take up to 6-8 weeks to process and are not always guaranteed.

The Children's Foundation hosts a program called "Playing for Keeps" that subsidizes registration fees so that financial hardship isn't a barrier for a child to participate.

Applications for assistance can typically be submitted from January 15 to November 1, (varies by Chapter) with the goal to be equitably distributed over Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter activities. The funding is distributed with a focus on maximizing the cost and length of participation per activity per child.
