Program Progress
The Kids Run Club program has been around since 2015, but Active SWV is excited to grow every year to reach new schools, communities, volunteers, and youth participants. Thank you to all the partners and volunteers who make the program possible!
“I plan to do this until my last day 🙂 I think this is the best part of my week. I’ve gotten to know younger students and maintain relationships with former students. I’ve watched friendship grow between students that did not know each other before this club. Most of all, I feel this club has positively impacted the climate of our school. All the kids talk about it – all the time!”
Looking Ahead
Although the Fall Kids Run Club Mini-Grant is closed, Active SWV will open applications again in February for the Spring cycle of the Mini-Grant.
