Our organization costs
Even though we are a totally volunteer run organization- we face a myriad of costs to run our programs:
- Room rental and maintenance
- Insurance
- Equipment purchase and maintenance
- Instructor training and certification
- Association fees
- Bursaries for students needing financial assistance to participate
As a registered Charitable Society SSASS is totally funded by donations, so your donations big and small help us continue to offer programs to make snow sports accessible.
