 How can we make an important contribution to the world?

 Over a 30 year span the percentage of obese children has increased from 6.5 percent to 19.5 percent  Almost 25% of obese adults were obese in their childhood

 Obese youth are more likely than youth of normal weight to become overweight or obese adults, and therefore more at risk for associated adult health problems, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer and osteoarthritis  The hospital costs for complications resulting from obesity in youth ages 6-17 soared from $35 million in 1979 to $127 million in 1999.

 Inactivity in children  Videos Games and Television  Poor Diet  Less physical education in schools

 The Food Research and Action Council identifies afterschool programs as effective venues for improving nutrition, nutrition education and physical activity  The afterschool time allows schools and community organizations to reinforce nutritious food choices and encourage involvement in physical fitness activities. With more than 1.4 million middle school children currently participating in afterschool programs and an astounding 3.1 million more middle schoolers interested in getting involved, afterschool has powerful potential to impact the fitness and nutrition of a large portion of our nation's middle school youth.

 Problem with creating our own program  Not enough time  Lack of connections  Similar programs  Publicity  Solution:  Joined forces with PEAK  Created a more structured program
