I am excited to share with you all what I have been working on this past year. It was actually a vision I had 4 years ago when I graduated from college. While studying Public Health in grade school I developed a passion for helping people through education. I believe that if people are educated on health issues, it is more likely to be prevented. With Childhood Obesity on the rise I saw a need to help prevent this epidemic. I want to present to you Generation Healthy Kids, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization focused on preventing and Overcoming Childhood Obesity.

With Generation Healthy Kids I hope to accomplish the following:

  • Implement an Annual Family Fit Run/Walk 5k race fundraiser. The 5k will be held annually during the Fall. Families will be encouraged to participate together to help promote physical fitness.
  • Development of Healthy Eating Workshops that will be presented in Elementary, Junior high and High schools. The program will be designed to help educate students about making healthy food choices and learning to prepare healthy snacks.
  • Development of After School Physical Fitness Activities. This program will be held after school , either on school grounds or at a local gym facility. Students will participate in physical fitness activities that will promote a healthy lifestyle.
  • Community Health Fairs will be organized annually to help promote health and wellness in the community. Vendors from different organizations will present their information to the community, cooking demonstrations will be offered as well as family fitness activities.
