Grandmothers provide unconditional love. They help us build confidence, connect us to our heritage and teach us new skills. Grandmothers see our light and help us to shine.
     There is a unique bond between grandmothers and grandchildren.  There is also a unique bond between and among grandmothers across the globe. Grandmother strangers become sisters in a moment. It is from this understanding that Canadian grandmothers were moved to act in solidarity with African grandmothers and the orphans in their care. 
      From that sisterhood we created FOR THE LOVE OF GRANDMOTHERS FITNESS CHALLENGE to give people of all ages an opportunity to demonstrate their love and appreciation for the grandmothers in their lives  and to celebrate the bond between grandmothers and grandchildren the world over.
