Young athletes
that aspire to Olympic competitions are either poorly funded
or
not funded at all
To raise funds for young athletes training
to qualify for the Olympics
2. The Power Of One
School-aged
children need to know that they, as individual people, have
the power to make
a difference in their communities if they just try
To get training
in and reward from community contribution by having students
work within an exciting and inspiring community project that
gives them tangible results
3. Educational Support
Schools and
teachers want exciting and practical methodologies for teaching
students basic academic skills
To provide
educators with a curriculum-based program to teach math, reading,
writing and social studies
4. Government &
Corporate Funding
Canadians only
think about the support
needs of elite athletes during the Olympics, which results in
an environment of poorly funded athletes
To create a
more sympathetic environment for continuous corporate and government
funding by sensitizing Canadians to the day-to-day support needs
of elite athletes
5. Personal Excellence
In many cases,
all people need in order to perform at a higher level is confidence
and encouragement
To create a
two-way support system where the students cheer their athlete
on to a higher level of performance and the athlete teaches
the students what it takes to achieve at the highest levels
in any endeavour
