The BC Amateur Sport Fund has set up a Flood Relief Fund for Sport BC members and affiliates to generate donations for costs resulting from the recent flooding across the province, particularly those in areas most affected by the flooding.
Organizations can direct supporters to the link below where they can write in the name of the group they wish to support. Donors to the fund will receive a tax receipt for eligible donations.
Sport BC’s Flood Relief Fund
You can designate your donation to a specific community, sport or club, or make a general donation that will go to the greatest need selected by Sport BC. You cannot donate to support a specific individual.
Sport BC will match $10,000 in donations to the Flood Relief Project. Sport BC will match every dollar raised up to $500 for each PSO and affiliate, up to a total of $10,000. Match funding will be prioritized for organizations most affected by the flooding.
Cycling BC affiliated clubs impacted do not need to register with the BC Amateur Sport Fund to fundraise with the Flood Relief Fund. Organizations can access funds designated to them by providing quotes or invoices for costs associated with the flooding. Our preference is to pay for those costs directly to your supplier. Eligible costs must be to the exclusive benefit of amateur sport and may include replacement equipment, facilities repair and renovation, rental fees and travel costs. BCASF will hold back 5% of all donations to cover overhead and administrative costs.
