Financial Assistance

The City of Port Coquitlam’s Financial Assistance program supports active lifestyles and healthy communities by offering inclusive recreation programs and services at a reduced cost for individuals.

If your financial circumstances make it difficult for you to pay the full fee for programs, you may qualify for financial assistance. All recipients will receive a One City Pass for the duration of the approved calendar year, which provides free entry to drop-in swimming, skating, fitness, racquetball/squash and all-age gym sports across the City.

• Adult recipients will also have the option to receive a total of $200 per calendar year and a 75% discount toward the cost of recreation programs and memberships.
• Children and youth recipients (0 – 18 years old) will have the option to receive a total of $500 per calendar year and a 75% discount toward the cost of recreation programs and memberships.

Applications for 2025 Financial Assistance will open December 1, 2024.
