Helping Kids Build Brighter Futures

The Iron Compass is the charitable initiative of RPM Training Co., with a mission of bringing fitness, mentorship, and education opportunities to at-risk and underserved youth.

Through worldwide events like the 10k Challenge, the Iron Compass harnesses the power of our active global community to change lives. We partner with like-minded organizations to give kids the chance to realize their own potential, develop resilience and confidence, and find a sense of belonging in a positive and healthy community.

The Iron Compass Scholarship Fund supports youth currently engaged in fitness and mentorship programs in their future academic endeavors
