General Mills Champions for Healthy Kids, Youth Fitness, and Nutrition
February 1, 2007
The goal of the General Mills Champions for Healthy Kids initiative, a partnership of the General Mills Foundation, the American Dietetic Association Foundation and the President's Challenge, is to encourage communities in the United States to improve the eating and physical activity patterns of young people.
The Initiative will award 50 grants of $10,000 each to nonprofit organizations and agencies with innovative programs that help youth, ages 2-20, develop good nutrition and fitness habits. Local organizations that work with children are encouraged to apply, including park districts, health departments, government agencies, Native American tribes, municipal organizations, churches, schools, YMCA's, Boys & Girls clubs, etc.
