“Funding is continuous from school-year-to-school-year. “

Apply for Funding

Funding decisions are made frequently. Once your program is accepted as a partner program in Show Kids You Care’s national network of programs, funds will be sent quarterly, if all reporting requirements have been satisfied.  Funding is continuous from school-year-to-school year. There is no need to reapply each year.

  • Cheques are not made payable to individuals.
  • Please contact us for further clarification if required.

Priorities for Support:

  • Programs that provide continuing nutrition to preschool and elementary aged children, as well as high school aged youth.
  • Programs that are already established, operating and affiliated with a community organization (school, social service agency, church, registered charity).
  • Programs that have a significant component of volunteer labour, and local donations of cash and food.
  •  Programs that require financial assistance for continuing operations costs.  Capital expenditures and start-up grants are not a priority for Show Kids You Care.

  • Please include who your target population is, the primary needs of your participants, how your program makes an impact in your community, etc.
  • Please count the average number of unique children who benefit from your program in a week. If a child attends three times a week, please only count this child once.

Some of our program partners that provide milk coupons, baby formula, weekend meals, etc all use this field to report their provision of 'other meals'. We will help you determine the appropriate number of 'other meals' to report when you call us to discuss this option.
