The Healthier Kids Foundation was started
because we saw a great need for a number of things that many children
are not getting today. Whether we are talking about diet, exercise, oral
health, family and community support, or outlets of artistic expression,
healthy kids need all of these in order to grow up to become healthy
adults. In many communities, only the wealthier families can afford to
provide the best food, exercise programs, and art or music classes. Our
mission is to provide ALL children opportunities to excel, and to learn
more about taking care of their bodies the best way possible. We will
complete this mission by:
- Providing a recreational gymnastics
facility for children of all ages
- Educating children and parents on good and
bad food choices
- Educating children and parents on proper
tooth care, including at-home caries prevention measures
- Developing performing arts programs and
allowing those children who wish to pursue the Arts a positive
environment in which to progress in their talents
- Fostering a spirit of community and
parental involvement which encourages children to perform to their
best ability
Since we are a small, rural community, we depend
on donations and grants to help us provide services to ALL children. If
you are an organization willing to do a fundraiser for our foundation,
we welcome all inquiries. We will be happy to provide any literature or
assistance that might help you complete your fundraiser.
