Support and Financial Assistance
Rec for All
The Town of Kingsville has programs that provide financial aid for families with children in sports and programs.
Recreation Assistance Program
Pathway to Potential is a strategy that aims to provide families and children in Windsor-Essex with opportunities to participate in their communities and to reach their full potential. It's funded by the City of Windsor and County of Essex. The Recreation Assistance Program, part of P2P, provides funding to support residents in Kingsville (Youth under 18 and Seniors over 60), who otherwise could not access recreation opportunities. Please contact 519-733-2123 or email programs@kingsville.ca for details.
Kingsville Recreation Fund
The Kingsville Recreation Fund provides assistance to those who do not qualify for the P2P discount program but are struggling to afford recreation fees. It was created with fundraising dollars raised during the Mayor's Spotlight on Business Golf Tournament. Eligible applicants can receive a 50% discount for qualifying recreational programs. Eligible applicants must be a resident of Kingsville and under the age of 18. Please contact 519-733-2123 or email programs@kingsville.ca for details.
