Mets on the Move
Mets on the Move, presented by the Hospital for Special Surgery, is a fitness initiative dedicated to keeping kids active and healthy. Each year, the Mets partner with local elementary schools to engage thousands of students in fun, movement-focused activities that promote lifelong wellness.
The program launches each spring to align with National Physical Fitness and Sports Month. Participating students receive pedometer watches to track their steps, with opportunities to earn Mets-themed prizes as they stay active and meet personal fitness goals.
Through the Amazin’ Mets Foundation, grants are provided to local organizations offering year-round youth fitness and wellness programs. Support has included funding for initiatives like New York Edge’s Girls L.E.A.D. program, new gym equipment and athletic gear for after-school sports, and summer camp programming at the Flushing YMCA, all aimed at inspiring healthy habits and active lifestyles for children in our communities.
