UCHealth partners with National Fitness Campaign to fund healthy communities across Colorado

UCHealth and National Fitness Campaign (NFC) announced a statewide partnership providing $1,000,000 in grant funding for up to ten communities in Colorado. In addition to receiving initial grant funding to build their Fitness Court® and launch their local wellness campaign, grant recipients will also receive a healthy lifestyle toolkit and programming to support community engagement for every UCHealth-sponsored Fitness Court®.

In 2019, the City of Loveland was the first recipient of a UCHealth Fitness Court®. Located at Fairgrounds Park, the Fitness Court® has become an impactful wellness hub for the community –offering a variety of free group fitness classes, bringing the local community together. Since then, over ten communities large and small have joined the statewide campaign, including Lakewood, Wheat Ridge, Englewood, and many more.

NFC is eager to work with municipalities and schools across Colorado to plan, design, and fund healthy communities, and the 2023-2024 application period is now open!
