Make It Happen: Dream It. Live It
Make It Happen: Dream It. Live It
The Make It Happen program is an exciting and unique Toronto 2015 Games initiative that brings together high-performance athletes and Grade 9 and 10 students to inspire them to set achievable goals, get involved in their communities and pursue healthy, active living. Based on the success of a small pilot test in fall 2010, the program was expanded to include 20 schools in southern Ontario for the 2011–2012 school year, with the hopes of expanding it year over year to 2015.
Participating schools are matched with an elite athlete from their community who visits twice a year to share their life and sport experiences as a competitive athlete on the national and international stage. In addition to school visits, each athlete will remain connected with their school through the use of social media.
