Getting All Kids
In The Game

Empowering all kids and teams to bond, grow, and win — together.

Team IMPACT’s unique multiyear program matches children facing serious illness and disability with college athletic teams across the country. Our mission is to guide children and teams alike in a mutually beneficial relationship of belonging, empowerment, and resilience.

Through this program, our vision is to create a world where every child facing serious illness and disability feels supported by something bigger and every team is transformed by a greater purpose. When we’re all in together, we all win together.

FAQs

Family

Team IMPACT serves children with over 250 life-altering medical conditions and disabilities. At this time, we are unable to serve children with autism spectrum disorder or asthma as a primary diagnosis.

Families can apply for children between the ages of 5 and 16 years old.

Team

While there are no strict requirements regarding the specific amount of time spent with your matched child, there is no off-season at Team IMPACT. We recommend that matches connect 2-4 times a month during the school year and at least monthly during the summer months.

The length of time a team is on the waiting list varies. We cannot guarantee a child for each interested team within a specific time frame, but we are consistently working with the pediatric medical community to get more referrals.
