No-Show Policy
100% of revenue from our class no-show policy goes to the cause.

2nd Quarter Give · April / May / June 2026
Club Inclusion
Club Inclusion is a Halifax community of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities — and those without. Together they build friendships, share experiences, and create inclusive spaces where everyone can learn, grow, and thrive.
What they do: safe spaces where people with IDDs are valued and encouraged to succeed. They connect people with fair-wage jobs and provide support along the way.
Mission: support people with disabilities to experience choice and opportunity — through recreation, meaningful relationships, skills development, and work in our communities.

Why This Matters to Us
Mitch and I believe in paying it forward — it was instilled in us from a young age. We're lucky to have hard-working parents who taught us work ethic and to treat others with kindness and respect.
We were also fortunate to play team sports and have coaches and teachers who went above and beyond. Our high school gym teacher picked us up before school every day so we could practice basketball. Our high school soccer coach built and coached a summer team after the Truro team we played on folded. And that's just a fraction of the experience we had.
Mentorship and people giving back to me — personally and to my business — continued the moment I opened Evolve in 2009. We wouldn't still be here today without those who chose to help without hesitation.
If you have a platform, you can do nothing or you can use it for good. Evolve is a truly special community full of people who share our values. We're grateful to stand alongside our clients and give back together.
