Fit Kids Makes First Donation of $7,000 to the
Kid Shape Foundation
Costa Mesa, California - The Fit Kids Foundation for Prevention of Childhood Obesity made its first
donation in the amount of $7,000 to the Kid Shape Foundation on Saturday. This marks the beginning
of a long-term campaign to help families defend themselves against the dangers of the Childhood
Obesity epidemic. The donation was presented to the Kid Shape Foundation at the 2009 FSS
Millionaire School event in Costa Mesa, California. This event is attended by more than 1,000 Herbalife
Distributors every year. The funds donated by the Fit Kids Foundation are raised directly by these
Herbalife Distributors in their Weight Loss Challenges, which occur regularly throughout the country.
Over the past year, the FSS Weight Loss Challenges have helped more than 1,000 people lose weight
safely and effectively. Herbalife Distributors donate $10 of each membership fee in every Weight Loss
Challenge to the Fit Kids Foundation. Accepting the donation on behalf of the Kid Shape Foundation
were Dr. Naomi Neufeld and Christiane Rivard.
KidShape Foundation is a non-profit organization that builds healthy families through KidShape,
TeenShape, KinderShape, and The KidShape Challenge programs. They provide training, materials,
curriculum updates, and technical support to organizations implementing these KidShape programs.
Many parents do not know how to help their children lose weight and be healthy. Obesity can cause
health problems that used to be seen primarily in adults, including type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure,
or high cholesterol. And many children suffer from depression, low self esteem, and isolation after
being teased because of their weight. KidShape can help!
KidShape teaches the entire family how to eat more nutritiously, make exercise a fun part of the daily
routine, form new healthy habits, and to like themselves, regardless of size. A team of health experts
consisting of a Registered Dietitian, a mental health professional, a physical activity expert, and a health
educator administers the KidShape program.
All KidShape programs are family-based. Each program incorporates hands-on activities to empower
youth and adults to eat healthy, move more, and feel good.
