BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The Indiana Football Chapter of Uplifting Athletes will host its first-ever Lift for Life event on Friday (June 28) as a part of its summer workout program.
Lift for Life is the signature awareness and fundraising event for the collegiate chapters of Uplifting Athletes. Indiana Football is a part of a national network of collegiate chapters which embrace the mission of Uplifting Athletes by using their platform to inspire and invest in the rare disease community through the power of sport.
“Uplifting Athletes empowers athletes to conquer rare diseases, one workout at a time,” said Uplifting Athletes General Manager Brett Brackett. “Though challenges remain – with thousands of rare diseases seeking cures – one workout at a time, we will rewrite the future for rare diseases.”
The challenges faced by the rare community are bigger than any one individual, team, or organization can tackle alone. However, the Indiana Football Chapter is inspired and motivated to shine a spotlight on this cause and drive awareness beyond their field, locker room, and workout facilities. Through their Lift for Life, they set an impressive $6,000 fundraising goal.
Fans, family, and friends can pledge their support to the Hoosiers by making a donation through the link official team link: charity.pledgeit.org/iufblfl24.
The money raised through Lift for Life supports the mission of Uplifting Athletes which harnesses the power of sport to build a community that invests in the lives of people impacted by rare diseases. Since 2018, Uplifting Athletes’ network of chapters has collectively raised over $650,000 through this fundraising initiative alone. Year-over-year feedback reports that in addition to being a high energy event for a great cause, students thrive on the fun atmosphere and opportunity to compete to raise funds and awareness for the rare community.
While each team is assisted by Uplifting Athletes, Lift for Life provides student-athletes with a unique leadership and event planning experience as they set up their own events. Uplifting Athletes provides the fundraising campaign website, social media content, and event t-shirts for Lift for Life events.
