Deadline: 30-Jun-25
The ParticipACTION Community Challenge is a national physical activity and sport initiative that encourages everyone in Canada to get active throughout June in search of Canada’s Most Active Community.
The ParticipACTION Community Challenge is presented by Novo Nordisk.
How does the Community Challenge promote equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility?
- Everyone living in Canada should have access to quality sport and physical activity opportunities that help them grow and thrive—physically, emotionally and socially. The Community Challenge helps facilitate low-barrier, inclusive opportunities for people in Canada to participate in physical activity and sport.
- The Community Challenge grant program helps to level the playing field by supporting local governments and community organizations in promoting and delivering sport and physical activity opportunities to equity-denied groups, including persons with disabilities, Black, racialized, Indigenous, 2SLGBTQIA+ and low-income communities, newcomers to Canada and older adults. Together, they’re building stronger and healthier communities.
Funding Information
- $100,000 to support local sport and physical activity initiatives.
Eligibility Criteria
- The Community Challenge is open to everyone in Canada! Local governments and community organizations can register their June physical activity and sport initiatives, programs and events and track the numbers of participants on the Challenge web portal from June 1 to 30.
- Individuals can also contribute to their community’s final score by pledging to get active during the Challenge throughout June.
