Kids On The Move is a program of Sports Backers that motivates thousands of young people across our region to run and be active on a regular basis. Sports Backers is committed to improving the health of our children by encouraging routine physical activity, which is critical to their long-term growth and well-being. Through a joint effort with the Richmond Road Runners Club, we provide mini-grants to local schools and organizations who seek to implement run clubs, fitness clubs, or host their own running or fitness event.
If you are interested in seeking support for your school, please complete the following application as accurately as possible. Grant amounts are determined based on the needs of each individual school/organization. The average amount awarded per school last year was $405 so please keep that in mind when requesting funding. Each school/organization may only apply one time during each school year.
