Sport Aurora All Kids Can Play Program

Sport Aurora’s All Kids Can Play Program is in it’s 16th year of operation.  We know that a lack of family finances can lead to social isolation and unhealthy, sedentary living for children.  Our Program has kept more than 300 children off the sidelines and into the game.  We need help NOW so that families who want their kids involved in organized sport can do so, regardless of their employment and financial situation.
