We’re inspiring people to get active and healthy while making an impact for severely malnourished kids by simply download the free Active For Good app.We’re creating programs that monetize physical activity of people all over the world. Activity tracked during challenges, by people being active, is converted into life-saving therapeutic food packets for children suffering from SAM.Our mission is to inspire people to get active while helping provide life-saving treatments to severely malnourished children in the developing world. We provide companies and groups with activity challenges that utilize purpose as a motivator. We are connecting physical activity with a great cause, and we hope to double the global budget for Ready-to-use Therapeutic Food (RUTF), the main line of defense against Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM).We've worked with our partners to get life-saving packets to kids in countries like Somalia, Kenya, Nigeria, Mali and South Sudan. When these kids are treated with three packets a day for just six weeks, more than 90% of children recover.
