Team IMPACT is a Boston-headquartered non-profit organization serving children who are facing life-threatening or chronic illnesses by creating unparalleled team-based support systems. Core to its model is leveraging the power of teamwork by matching these courageous kids with college athletic teams. Since 2011, Team IMPACT has matched 2,000 children with more than 700 colleges and universities in 48 states, reaching more than 55,000 student-athletes. The child joins the athletic team and the student-athletes join the child's support team. Throughout the journey, the child gains strength, camaraderie and support while the student-athletes experience lessons of courage, resiliency and perspective.
Saint Michael's has been a long-time partner of Team IMPACT since the 2011-12 school year, joining many Northeast-10 Conference counterparts in its involvement. For more information, visit TeamIMPACT.org.
