September 4, 2026
Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities has invested over $300 million in communities across Canada since it was founded in 2005, helping more than 4 million children access sport and recreation. What makes this more than a marketing tie-in: Canadian Tire Corporation funds 100% of the charity's administrative and operating costs directly, meaning every dollar donated by customers goes entirely to programs for kids — none of it is absorbed by overhead. The program runs across Canadian Tire, Mark's, and SportChek locations nationwide.
