Guiding Communities to Improve the Nutritional and Physical Well Being of Children and Their Families
The Real Food First mission is to partner with worksites, hospitals and other institutions to help them select, prepare and serve healthier foods in an effort to build a culture of wellness as well as increase employee enthusiasm and productivity. Real Food First helps a company or organization model good nutrition practices in cafeterias, in vending machines and during catered events, thus creating a food system where wholesome, seasonally available, fresh, delicious and real food is the norm.
Shape Up RI is a statewide exercise and weight loss challenge founded by Brown Medical School student Rajiv Kumar on the belief that the solution to healthy living lies in the power of teamwork and peer support. This health campaign encourages Rhode Islanders to pursue healthy lifestyles through increased physical activity and better nutrition.
