Financial Assistance
Our club was established in 2008 to offer paddle sports (sprint canoe/kayak and dragon boat) to people of all ages and abilities.
We strive for inclusiveness. SNCC partners with Delta Bingo, Jumpstart, ProKids and Family and Children's Services to offer financial assistance where needed.

Availability of Programming Subsidies
To use Bingo funds for financial aid, SNCC is required to request all applicants for youth to also apply for Jumpstart and/or ProKids.
Funds available through SNCC and Bingo funds are determined by the current BOD. When an application is received with all the required supporting materials/forms, it will be held confidential and evalutated based upon the overall household income using the Niagara Region Low-Income Measure (LIM) and Low-Income Cut-off (LICO) standards. Requests may be approved at the requested amount, or at a higher or lower amount, or be declined at the discretion of BOD appointed finanical aid committee or representative.
