HOW TO HELP
Monkeybarz is committed to getting kids to increase physical activity.  Here is a highlight of the programs we are working on to make a difference:
  • Continuous updates and enhancements to our website, www.monkeybarz.org – to provide solutions to educate and motivate parents, kids and educators.
  • Promoting the MONKEYBARZ CHALLENGE – Our 4-month physical activity program to get kids taking responsibility for their fitness.
  • Piloting Project Activate - Our advocacy program of school-wide physical fitness assessment testing and intervention so we can impact more kids and schools each year.
  • Grassroots initiatives with our brochure distribution system we hope to cultivate through our monkeybarz advocates program.
  • Development of an innovative public awareness campaign to get kids to add at least 60 minutes of heart pumping, physical activity into every day.

 

We are a lean and mean organization and passionate about increasing physical fitness in kids aged 5-12 years old.  Please support our efforts to get parents, kids and educators to take action to stop the devasting statistics so the generation of kids now will live a long, healthy life into the future.
