Financial Assistance
The Down Syndrome Resource Foundation (DSRF) is pleased to provide the Children & Youth Bursary Program to assist families with the cost of DSRF programs. DSRF significantly subsidizes all its programs and services to make them as affordable and accessible as possible for all families. The DSRF Financial Support Program is additional financial assistance provided to families most in need.

The Bursary Program was originally established by DSRF Board Director, George Klukas, who believes financial difficulties should not be a barrier for families to access DSRF's programs. The program is made possible by the continued support of Mr. Klukas, other major donors, and the Triple-21 Bursary Program which directs 21% of funds donated by individuals and corporations who participate in the monthly giving campaign directly to bursaries.

Submit your application two weeks prior to program registration.
You may submit your application in person at 1409 Sperling Avenue, Burnaby, by email to info@dsrf.org, or by fax to (604) 431-9248.
