After Canadian Olympic cycling hopeful Claudine Labelle suffered a career-ending accident, she channeled her love of sport into speaking about healthy living at local schools. In 2007, she founded FitSpirit to encourage girls to discover the long-term benefits of getting active with friends. FitSpirit’s programs have expanded to enrich the lives of students in schools across Ontario and Quebec.
