The iPALs program was created to be accessible to all families, so donor gifts are crucial to maintaining the operating budget of the program.

The Lifetime Fitness Program is a community-based fitness program for older adults (55+), that is managed by the Department of Health & Kinesiology. The program’s primary emphasis is to provide opportunities for structured group or individualized fitness activities that links researchers with subjects for study of selected aspects of physical activity and health for adults.
