How Funds Raised are Making a Difference
The GoodLife4Kids School Program partners with local teachers to teach fitness skills in grade 4 classes at no cost to schools.
Our Grant Program provides funding for ongoing physical activity programs for children with special needs.
Win4Kids is an annual contest where the public is invited to nominate a program in their community which is getting kids active. Ten finalists are selected and the public votes to determine how much of $100,000 each program will win.
When a Team Raises $1,000 They Help Get Kids Active!
Children with special needs can face significant barriers to participation in physical activity – including the need for adapted equipment, specially trained instructors, additional support staff, and smaller group sizes. GoodLife Kids Grant Program supports specialized physical activity programs with meaningful outcomes for children with disabilities.
Here are some of the ways $1,000 raised by a Spin4Kids Plus team can make a difference:
- 6 Kids learn to swim and can join family and friends in the pool
- 8 kids become more independent bylearning to ride a bike
- 10 kids learn to express themselves and make new friends through a dance program
- Kids at camp are able to try different sports with newly purchased adapted equipment
GoodLife4Kids School Program partners with teachers to bring fun fitness activities to grade 4 classes across the country at no cost to schools. Students are learning new skills, gaining confidence through participation and brimming with new-found self-esteem.
It takes $3,000 per year to bring this program to a school that needs support:
| One Spin4KidsPlus team raises $3000 | OR | Three Spin4Kids Plus teams each raise $1000 | = | One school participating in GoodLife4Kids programming |
