Founded in 2015, the nonprofit GROW Healthy Kids' mission is to
make a positive difference in vulnerable children's lives by increasing
opportunities for physical activity and healthy living. We do this by fostering
positive relationships between high-need youth and trusted adults in their communities.
Our vision is to help develop the healthiest children by supporting
grassroots wellness initiatives. GROW is driven by their core values: Collaboration, Health, Inclusion, Leadership,
and Devotion
Program initiatives include:
GROW Steps: Distribute new shoes to public
school children in need.
GROW Recess: Provide public school teachers at
low-resource schools with recess toys to promote physically active recess
periods.
GROW Run: Support volunteer-led running programs
in public schools.
GROW Trust: Deploy a new sports ball to law enforcement agencies to help inspire positive interactions between Central Florida cops and kids.
