The CDC suggests school aged youth participate in 60 minutes of “moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity each day.” However, students today are receiving far fewer opportunities to participate in healthy, physical activities at home, at school, and in their communities. UncoMN Champions aims to provide AT LEAST one free field trip for every under-resourced, under-supported Saint Paul public school, program, and/or organization!

Unfortunately, there is no youth and/or community development without someone actually doing the work. Planning curriculum, building relationships with various MN stakeholders, creating marketing materials, social media campaigns are all needed to create successful programming and takes time and immense effort. And though sweat equity has been invested in bulk, people still need to be able to provide for their family and loved ones.

We want to make sure we provide quality, effective, sustainable programming to the St. Paul community with the most highly qualified staff and we need YOUR help!
