Community Grants The IRONMAN Foundation provides charitable support to a variety of local non-profit organizations that recognize citizens in need and support The Foundation’s mission. The Foundation works with community leaders to identify projects and initiatives and to provide funding in order to support worthwhile causes. This year, The IRONMAN Foundation’s Community Fund will provide a $5,000 community grant to Girls Inc. of Bay County to purchase age-appropriate fitness equipment to improve their Mind+Body and Sporting Chance programs for girls ages six to eighteen, which will help positively impact on the health and wellbeing of their girls, assisting with the development of necessary habits for being healthy adults.
Despite the challenges presented to IRONMAN Maryland athletes this year, they “weathered the storm” and displayed true IRONMAN grit, even in the midst of a tough day. With a cancelled swim, TEAM IMF Athletes rolled out onto the bike course as the first athletes in line. Throughout the rest of race day, TEAM IMF athletes had smiles on their faces, for even though the day may not have gone as planned, their positive impact on the IRONMAN Maryland Community would last far beyond race day.
