How to get KidFit in your area
The KidFit program can be brought to most areas. The typical model is to
distribute the program on DVD to schoolchildren, either in public school, private schools,
or both. Under this model, we would also air the program on television, usually on a Saturday,
and we have closed-captioned versions for air.
The body of the program remains the same for all areas, but we will also
produce new material for each geographic area as well.
Currently, the program is available only in English, but it would be easy
to provide a version dubbed in another language or with subtitles.
KidFit was designed to have as much reach as possible, but we need corporate
sponsorship to pay for the program, and the support of government officials to push the program
through. Through the Corporate Foundation for Children, any corporate investment in the KidFit
program is tax-deductible.
Government officials have long been worried about the problem of overweight
children becoming obese adults. Since this is an important issue to them, we have worked with
nutritionists and exercise physiologists to design this program to have the most effect. There
are other programs that they can endorse, but KidFit has been designed to have the maximum
impact on kids.
If you believe in this program, please write your governmental officials and
let them know you want KidFit in your area. We would be happy to work with them and with corporate
sponsors to get the program out, so it will have positive effects in your area as well.
