Donate to support in school programming across the United States to help students live healthier lives by increasing access to nutritious school meals and physical activity opportunities. With students in school 180 days a year, in school programs meet students where they're at to set them up for long term success.
GENYOUth is addressing two big issues in schools across the United States and our program solutions combat these two statistics: 1. 30 million students rely on school meals for daily nutrition, and 1 in 5 children face food insecurity, with higher rates among Black, LatinX, and Indigenous households. 1. Fewer than 1 in 4 students get the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity. Teen girls drop of out of sports at twice the rate of boys.
To increase access to school meals and opportunities to be physically active, GENYOUth implements the following solutions: 1. Highly effective nutrition equipment grants increase nutrition security, which nourishes students, promotes healthy eating, and fuels achievement in school - and in life! 2. School-based physical education is the top source of youth physical activity. Our turnkey programs bring new ways to be active. By supporting GENYOUth you are helping to set students up for success!
With our programs being implemented in elementary, middle, and high schools across the country the equipment we provide to schools will span across multiple school years with the potential of reaching millions of kids each school year. Our resources are often used beyond the school day as well during after-school programs and summer feeding programs. With vital insights from our grant recipients we are able to adapt our program offerings to meet the needs of schools for years to come.
