Health Is Your Wealth

Better health through better living.

Health Is Your Wealth

Better health through better living.

WHAT WE DO

Health Is Your Wealth (previously SCULPT) was designed to provide participants with valuable wellness information that can be incorporated into their everyday lives. Making healthier choices doesn’t just apply to the adults in the household, it’s something kids can do too! Our Health Is Your Wealth workshop series is designed to be kid friendly and inclusive so that future generations are empowered with the tools necessary to build a healthier future.

When families live healthier lifestyles, they also save money in the long run, which helps to increase financial stability. They are often able to reduce their medical expenses and the need for medications, resulting in a better quality of life. Our Health Is Your Wealth workshop series allows families to invest in themselves by creating fun memories through learning how to build a garden and grow their own foods; participating in cooking classes; and engaging in fun fitness and health related activities.

For 2023, our Health Is Your Wealth Program was hosted at the following community partner sites: Atlanta Habitat for Humanity, the YMCA of Metro Atlanta, and The Boyce Ansley School. Our four Health Is Your Wealth Workshops of Health Biometrics, Fitness Challenge, Frugal Chef and Home Gardening were brought to these three partner sites and the families they serve.

For a period of 4 months, participant families committed to attending monthly educational sessions. Health data was also collected at the beginning of the series and again at the 4-month mark. Our workshop series included topics such as self-care, Q&A sessions with medical professionals, physical fitness, growing your own food, and eating healthy on a budget.

With dedication and consistency, families are empowered to improve their own health outcomes!

On November 18th, Warrick Dunn Charities held our Annual Holiday Workshop and Pantry Fill for all the Health Is Your Wealth partners and families. We celebrated the health wins and completed a Health Is Your Wealth Graduation where families received a grocery bag of food to bring home just in time for the holidays. Thank you to our sponsors American Opportunity Foundation, Publix Supermarkets Charities, Delta Community Credit Union, Costco, and our in-kind sponsors the YMCA of Metro Atlanta and Retaaza.

HOW WE DO IT

Step 1:

We schedule Health Is Your Wealth workshops for families in our local communities. These events are funded by our partners and donors like you.

Step 2:

Participating families have the opportunity over a 4-month period to learn from professionals about the importance of biometric screenings, incorporating physical activity into your daily routine, eating healthy on a budget, the empowering joy of gardening at home, and much more!

Step 3:

After being educated and excited about healthy living, families are provided with the tools and resources needed to kickstart what they’ve learned.

WHY WE DO IT

For many parents, providing healthy meals for their families feels unaffordable. Health Is Your Wealth combats this by educating and motivating individuals through a nutrition and wellness program that’s developed specifically for low-income families.
