  • Funding up to $300 per child is available
  • A maximum of one program per child is allowed per season
  • Funding is available for different members of the same family during the same season

Applicants are required to apply to Jumpstart directly. SMMHA CANNOT apply for funds from Jumpstart on behalf of anyone.
