Healthy LifeStars is the go-to national program inspiring kids to live active, healthy lives through motivating lessons in nutrition, activity and goal setting.
Healthy LifeStars is a nonprofit organization responding to the rise in childhood obesity.
Guided by a bold vision to bend the obesity curve downward, we partnered with leading healthcare organizations to develop and refine the evidence-based The LifeStar Challenge™—empowering kids and families, especially in underserved communities, to build healthy habits for life.
WHAT WE DO
Through scalable partnerships with schools and youth-serving organizations, we deliver The LifeStar Challenge wherever kids gather, from classrooms and after-school clubs to community programs across the U.S.
Designed for kids aged 6–12, the program is engaging, repeatable and habit-forming, with a focus on:
Nutrition education
Daily physical activity
Goal setting and personal responsibility
WHY IT MATTERS
By incorporating healthy habits early, Healthy LifeStars helps kids develop the confidence to say, “I am active. I eat right. I can do it.”
I am active!
I eat right!
I can do it!
These early choices reduce long-term health risks, lower future healthcare costs and empower kids to believe in themselves—creating stronger, healthier communities for generations to come.
