Active SWV Fall 2024 Kids Run Club Mini-Grant is Open
Active SWV is thrilled to announce the opening of applications for the Fall 2024 Kids Run Club Mini-Grant. This program is a fantastic opportunity for schools and youth community groups across West Virginia to establish or continue a Kids Run Club at their location, fostering a lifelong love of physical activity among children.
The Kids Run Club program is designed to provide a fun and supportive environment where children can develop healthy habits through running. By participating, children not only engage in physical activity but also learn the value of perseverance, goal-setting, and teamwork. The program’s ultimate goal is to instill a passion for fitness that lasts a lifetime.
Schools and community groups interested in applying for the mini-grant must submit their applications by September 23, 2024. The grant offers resources and support to ensure that each Kids Run Club is successful in creating a positive and active environment for kids. For more details and to apply, click here.
