! KIDS … get nutrition

and physical activity

! SCHOOLS … get

the $$$$$ they need

! COMMUNITIES

… get to see healthy choices IN ACTION

HEALTHY “WINS”

What’s wrong with cookie dough, gigantic chocolate bars, and caramel corn?

! Most folks have plenty cookies, candy,

and other nutrient-poor foods already.

! These foods do not provide positive

examples to families.

! Many fundraisers take $$$$ out of state,

with limited funds going to schools.

No precise definition

! Does not sell nutrient-poor

foods/beverages

! Promotes healthy behaviors

to kids and families

! Supports local business or

keeps money in-state

Raises $$$$$!!

What is a HEALTHY fundraiser?

! WRAPPING PAPER … does not sell nutrient-

poor foods/beverages and it raises money …

" BUT … it does not promote any healthy behaviors and

most of the money (50% +) goes out-of-state.

! CITRUS FRUIT … does not sell nutrient-poor

foods/beverages, raises money, and promotes healthy food …

" BUT … most of the money (50%) goes to out-of-state

companies and producers.

What is a HEALTHY fundraiser?

! COFFEE … does not sell nutrient-poor foods/

beverages and it raises money …

" BUT … it does not promote any healthy behaviors and

r support local agriculture.

" City Brew Coffee in Billings (michaelt@citybrew.com)

! RECYCLED BAGS … does not sell nutrient-poor

foods/beverages, raises money, and recycling …

" BUT … most of the money (50%) goes to out-of-state

companies and producers.

Laura Schilke, Parent

Fitness is Fun Fundraiser

! 2nd Annual Emily

Dickinson Fun Run

! MORE than just

running

! Adopting a “Fitness

is Fun” attitude for a healthy lifestyle for years to follow

HOW DOES IT WORK?

! Kids gather pledges prior to the FUN RUN. ! On the FR day, kids are given 30 minutes to

run around a 100 meter track. We stop counting at 35 laps.

! Kids have 10 days to return the pledges they

collect.

! Kids are givens incentives to gather pledges

and then are able to win Grand Prizes based

n the amount of money is collected.

WHAT ELSE IS IMPORTANT?

! During the 10 days

prior to the FUN RUN, we bring in health and fitness experts to give brief, inspiring talks in classrooms.

! Teachers support the

curriculum piece with classroom lessons.

WHERE DID WE GET IDEA?

! Boosterathon.com –

company didn’t want to come to Montana.

! The beauty of a home

grown fundraiser is that 100% of the net earnings goes to the

rganization.
