We recognize the essential role community groups and other non-profit organizations play in the development and implementation of sport, recreation, and physical activity programs. We also recognize that many of these organizations face financial barriers. Through our community and organizational support pillar we provide financial assistance to non-profit organizations for Participation and Leadership opportunities that align with InMotion Network's mission and vision.

We aim to stay true to our commitment to equity. We do this by prioritizing programs and activities that target individuals and groups that experience more than one form of oppression (e.g., race and gender or disability and gender). For example, in 2021 43% of the participants we supported through this program self identified as living with low income.

The InMotion Network's PARTICIPATION and LEADERSHIP contribution programs offer support to organizations that encourage girls and women (in all their diversity) to get active and be leaders in sport and physical activity.

Through this program we strive to:

  • Facilitate high quality active opportunities in communities that address barriers to participation.
  • Support programs that have sustainable goals through partnerships with local community resources.
  • Work with stakeholders and partners from local and provincial organizations and businesses.
  • Support local leaders, coaches and officials with the training they need to improve their skills and their capacity to run programs and physical activity opportunities.
  • Support increase movement/leadership opportunities for individuals who have been, and continue to be, excluded from our sporting, recreation, and physical activity systems due to interrelated factors such as race, gender, income, (dis)ability, religion, and language.

PLEASE NOTE: All of InMotion Network's contribution programs are funded through AGLC gaming proceeds. All applications must be submitted through an Alberta not-for-profit organization or charity in good standing in order to be eligible. If your organization has their own AGLC gaming proceeds, this support must be used through your Casino account and based on your approved use of proceeds.
