SPARTAN KIDS FOUNDATION FITNESS GRANT GUIDELINES
Spartan Kids Foundation (SKF), the charitable endeavor of Spartan Race, seeks to make healthy the new normal for the next generation and to offer extraordinary experiences to underserved youth. SKF’s School / Organization Fitness grant making program looks to empower local schools / organizations to promote healthy and active lifestyles among their students.
AWARD
Grants of $500 each will be awarded to promote healthy active lifestyles.
Any school / organization that applies for the grant will be provided information they can distribute to their children so that they may register for free for the local Spartan Kids Race being held in the area. Kids who participate in the race will be responsible for the actual cost of the insurance waiver for their participation (approximately $14). Please note races may be cancelled if safety concerns persist. The Foundation will provide the most up to date information on race dates.
