Our Impact Today

We’ve made it through one of the most difficult years in human history. For many of us sports, physical activity, and fitness were the guiding lights that helped us power through 2020.

Now, it is a new year. Our spirits are stronger. Our hearts are full of gratitude for our CAF community. And our belief in the power of sport to strengthen from the inside out is deeper than ever.

We are all ready to get off the sidelines and back into the game of life through sport.

Here are a few ways we’ve been turning to sport for strength:

Grant exchanges or deferments to support home gym equipment, deferred competitions, and virtual training
Online training programs, webinars, and digital training videos
Equipment innovation like the Grit Freedom chair to help kids and adults access the outdoors
Heroes of Sport weekly interview series to keep our community connected
Expanding our virtual cycling club
Cheering on our 2021 Paralympians as they head to Tokyo

And planning for the time when we can finally be together, in person, again.

While the future is uncertain, we feel hope and gratitude for the opportunities in front of us. We know sports and physical activity are the keys to reloading our resilience, strength, and spirit.

We continue to put our heart and soul into getting challenged athletes and the community that supports them stronger through sport.
