Why Support This Initiative

For the vast majority of kids, schools are the ONLY place they are physical active!   The epidemic of childhood obesity will never come near a solution without funds, support  and engagement of schools and the PE Teachers of America!  According to the After School Alliance, 61.5% of children ages 9-13 do not participate in any organized physical activity outside of school hours, and 22.6% do not engage in any type of physical activity during free time.
