Team Impact is a group that excels in partnering with children facing life-threatening and chronic illnesses to match them with a college program. With doing this it will create a bond between the child and the team, where many activities will take place and also a signing day will be held to bring this child onto the respective team. Teams that apply for a child are put onto a waiting list and teams are chosen based on where the child lives.
