Start Today

iMove for United Way Presented by St. Clair College & St. Clair College Alumni Association is our virtual fundraising event that focuses on the importance of physical activity as part of a person’s overall wellbeing.  

By participating in iMove for United Way, you are not only supporting your own health and wellness, you’re supporting local kids across Windsor-Essex County through Ignite Academy. United Way is proud to be one of the 40+ partners delivering and facilitating this community strategy. 

Get up, get moving, and challenge yourself and others to move for 200 minutes. Whether you run, walk your dog, do yoga moves or dance in your living room we want you go get moving and raise needed funds for local kids in our community. 

Data shows that in some neighbourhoods 36% of children are behind in reading and writing, and 58% are behind in math. There are also big hurdles that many children have to overcome, like hunger, mental health issues, lack of necessary school supplies, limited help with schoolwork and unreliable transportation options. This situation makes it extremely difficult for many children to keep up with their peers academically. Ignite Academy was built to directly impact these startling statistics.

iMove’s goal is to not only raise funds to support Ignite Academy right now, but also to gather the resources necessary to expand into more schools, helping more kids and families across the community in the future. Your donation stays 100% local.
