We are here to serve 
KID HEALTHY just celebrated 8 years of working in schools, youth agencies, community organizations, and after school sites to combat the rising trend of childhood obesity in Southern California. We were working in the community to lower the obesity rates in children long before it was popular. To date, we've impacted over 500,000 students, parents, and teachers. Working in collaboration with 20 public and private non-profit agencies, KID HEALTHY has put into place activities aimed to encourage children in grades 4 and 5 to make healthy food choices and increase their physical activities. The KID HEALTHY Nutrition Education Material and Activity Plan closely mirrors First Lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" Campaign.
"We applaud the First Lady for drawing attention to the issue of childhood obesity and for presenting sound approaches that are already working locally in Southern California," said KID HEALTHY's Executive Director, Jackie Teichmann, "Obesity is a national problem and we support her efforts to lead this national awareness campaign."
Both KID HEALTHY and the "Let's Move" Campaign support: 1) Offering parents the tools and information they need to make better decisions about their children's nutrition; 2) getting healthier foods in schools; 3) improving the accessibility and affordability of healthy foods; and 4) increasing opportunities for kids to play and move.
KID HEALTHY is a fiscally sponsored project of OneOC, formally known as the Volunteer Center Orange County. All gifts to our foundation are tax deductible as allowed by law. 501(c)(3) ID# 95-2021700
Our programs: KID HEALTHY's Steps to Healthy Living, KID HEALTHY's Padres en Acción (Parents in Action)and Cooking Up Change.
