MoveIt! 2021 is a community health challenge that allows participants (“Movers”) to get fit and give back. Through the Charity Footprints platform, Movers will set a personal goal and walk, run, play, cycle—whatever moves them!—through four virtual loops around CMC locations in San Joaquin, Solano, and Yolo counties. Movers are encouraged to log their steps, share with their networks, and help raise funds toward a community goal of $25,000 and 25,000 miles!
CMC is a long-standing leader in the community, helping uninsured, underserved, and vulnerable individuals and families for over 50 years. Our staff is proud to provide personalized care that meets the needs of each patient through a combination of medical, dental, and behavioral health care along with supportive services. From wellness check-ups for our tiniest patients, to helping someone make the first step toward recovery, to developing a new Adolescent Health Program, CMC is there for those in need. Funds raised through MoveIt! 2021 go directly to programs and services at CMC’s network of 28 service sites, serving over 100,000 patients in San Joaquin, Solano, and Yolo counties.
There are four mileage goals to choose from, each representing a different part of CMC’s service area. Movers can participate individually, form a team, or become a Shaker and sponsor the event! Participants will be able to track their progress through fitness devices (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Watch, Google Fit, Misfit, Strava), or through the Charity Footprints' iOS or Android apps. Incentives will be provided for completing goals and prizes awarded to the top individuals and teams.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Charity Footprints?
Charity Footprints is a social enterprise that connects fitness and charitable giving. We empower people just like you, to get fit & give back.
Our Virtual Races allow non-profits to challenge their patrons to run, walk or ride and raise funds just as they would in a fundraising walkathon. The best part - charities save over 45% in event and logistical costs. So, the dollars that you pay to register or fundraise, go farther.
What is the campaign registration fee?
Campaign registration fee is the amount that you'll need to pay to enroll in this virtual race. This fee (less transaction charges) will go to the non-profit running this campaign as a donation.
The registration fee along with the funds raised through your individual fundraising page will enable the non-profit to fund various programs and pursue their organization's mission.
How can I create my fundraising page?
Well, you wouldn't have to create a separate fundraising page. Once you register for this campaign, we'll give you the link to your fundraising page.
If you workout indoors (treadmill, elliptical, stationary bike etc.), you can upload your workouts here.
How do I join a team on this campaign?
While registering for the campaign, select the team you'd like to join or create a new team and invite others to #GetFitGiveBack with you. If you want to join a team (or create your team) after registration, login to the campaign site and you would find a link to edit "My Team" in the menu under your profile in the header.
I am an international donor (non-US), what are my donation charges and tax-deductibility?
All donations are made in US dollars, so the donations may be levied an exchange rate fee via your bank. Donors will want to connect with their bank to determine exactly what that fee may be. Additionally, international donors will need to reach out to a tax professional to discuss if and how tax deductibility will apply to their donation.
Who can sponsor my fundraising efforts?
The short answer is - everyone. The fundraising research shows that the number one reason for people not donating is that they weren't asked to.
That said, there are things you can do to attract people to sponsor you. Adding a picture to your fundraising page, telling potential donors why this cause is so personal to you, sharing your fundraising page on social media, email, and chat groups.
Last, if your employer has a gift matching program, check with the human resources department to support your favorite cause as well.
Who can I contact if I need help?
You can contact us any time if you need help. We love hearing from our users so please don't hesitate to write to us about issues, suggestions, or to just say hi. You can also contact the non-profit administrator directly if you would like.
