Fit Girls is thrilled to announce that they have been awarded the Community Health Options Wellness Grant, which will enable them to continue their mission of promoting physical, emotional, and mental health for girls aged 9-11 in Franklin County. Through mentoring and teaching healthy habits such as eating well, exercising outdoors, and verbalizing needs, Fit Girls aims to empower young girls to take care of their bodies and navigate relationships with confidence.
Thanks to the support of Community Health Options and other sponsors like the Onion Foundation, Stephen & Tabitha King Foundation, Bangor Savings Bank, Franklin Savings Bank, and generous community members, Fit Girls is able to offer their program free of cost to all participants and their families. This reduces barriers to access and helps more girls in the community benefit from the program’s positive impact.
Fit Girls is committed to helping girls prioritize their health and wellbeing. They are grateful for the support they receive from the community and encourage everyone to donate or partner with them in making a difference in the lives of young girls in Franklin County. With their continued efforts and partnerships with organizations like Healthy Community Coalition and Maine Health, Fit Girls will continue to make a positive impact on the lives of many young girls in the area.
