Kane County Fit For Kids Fund
(Established 2009)
The Kane County Fit For Kids Fund provides support to community coalitions that address four strategic action principles.
- Provide parents and children with reliable, up-to-date information in multiple settings regarding healthy physical activity and eating habits;
- Support a culture of wellness and health promotion in our workplaces, schools, homes, communities and other institutions;
- Develop land use, planning and other public policies that foster and support physical activity for all members of our communities;
- Assure that fresh fruits and vegetables are affordable and accessible to all families in our communities.
The fund currently is providing grants to the Robert Crown Center, Delnor Community Hospital and the Greater Elgin Area YMCA for convening and planning efforts to reduce childhood obesity.
The Kane County Health Department is overseeing the effective implementation of these grants.
