Smart Start Halton Works to Increase Local CLB Champions

Blog Posts

As a part of our continuing efforts to increase the take-up rates for the Canada Learning Bond in Halton, the Smart Start Halton team is working to develop local champions in as many organizations and spaces that serve and interact with potentially eligible families. Our key messaging encourages educational savings and empowers families with greater knowledge about opportunities to access free federal money and matching grants for post-secondary education savings.

We hope to work with organizations, companies, or teams who want to help more kids to get their Canada Learning Bond.
