The Junior League of Mobile Fitness and Nutrition grant‘s purpose is to integrate technology into physical
education classes utilizing the X Box Connect gaming system and dance and exercise games to promote healthy
lifestyles that carry over into the home and later years. Included in the activities are lessons on healthy eating,
making good choices, and promoting healthy lifestyles. Utilizing technology with physical activities that increase
activity and decreasing body weight flows seamlessly into the physical education curriculum.
The Alabama Sports Festival Foundation (ASF Foundation), a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, was founded in
1982 at the request of the United States Olympic Committee. The ASF Foundation serves as a state-wide mentor
organization for teaching our youth the importance of academics, healthy lifestyles and good citizenship. The ASF
sponsors the Alabama Sports Festival. In 2012, ASF Foundation's 30th Anniversary State Games showcased more
than 6,000 athletes competing in 25 different sports and over 100 sporting events.
The Wii Can Fight Obesity’s (WiiFit) primary objective is to instill healthy lifestyle habits that will hopefully last a
lifetime, significantly reduce obesity risk factors and enhance interest in personal health, movement related
activities and sports. The ASF Foundation has thus far invested over $800,000 in providing Wee Can Fight Obesity SM
systems and professional assistance to 243 schools and 38 Senior Centers participating in the program. The
mission of the Wee Can Fight Obesity initiative is to empower students and educators with the tools and resources
to engage students in quality movement experiences through the use of technology based interactive game
activities.
