Creative Kids is a charitable program that funds Saskatchewan children who want to take music and dance
lessons, learn to paint or act, speak a family language,
explore different cultures, find out about their heritage, study dinosaur bones or join a number of other
creative pursuits in their community. We fund arts,
heritage, multicultural and Aboriginal activities for
families facing financial barriers. Up to $750 per child,
per year is available for children aged 4 - 19. Most families approved for funding have gross annual incomes
of less than $40,000, although families with higher incomes have been supported depending on individual
circumstances. Applications are assessed individually
primarily on a family’s financial need. Youth living independently may also apply. For additional information contact:
