LA49>1

Louisiana is currently ranked as the 49th unhealthiest state. Ouch. We have a rich cultural tradition of food but that hasn’t always meant we were unhealthy. This new trend is recent and is occurring nationwide as child and adult obesity rates skyrocket, giving chronic illnesses like diabetes and heart disease a foothold in younger and younger demographics. We CAN retain our cultural diversity AND also improve our health. Join us on the road to the healthiest state in the country. Journey with us from 49 to 1. Start today.

 

Where do I begin?

It starts with a simple goal. There are plenty of resources in our community to help you! It’s a matter of finding them and gathering them to you to make a change.

What do I eat?

Becoming more active is certainly critical, but when paired with smarter choices in eating, the effect can be amazing. RKF will help you by providing resources for smarter eating. The first step is learn what you are eating!

Why Sponsor

YOU + OPPORTUNITY

    Sponsoring our Foundation means you can have a direct impact our your community and our goal to make it a healthier place. Sponsors are the bones of our Foundation's Programs, Races and Activities. Every dollar or in-kind donation becomes part of who we are and what we are achieving.

Why Volunteer

YOU + COMMITMENT

    Volunteers are the lifeblood of Rocketkidz Foundation. It takes just an hour or two to make a tangible difference in someone else's journey to a healthier, happier place. As simple as cheering on a course corner can be the one thing that gets someone to believe they can do something they didn't think was possible. Join our team and be part of something wonderful.

Why Donate

YOU + GENEROSITY

    Donate because one dollar can make a big difference to someone. It doesn't go to pay large corporate overhead or a team of lawyers or marketing firms. It goes to programs and events that give people a chance to do something they need to do - be healthier. Donate because it makes where you live a better place. Donate because that donation may just come back to you one day to do something you've always dreamed about.
