About ING Run For Something Better®
Childhood obesity has become a serious health concern across the nation. ING Run For Something Better is tackling the issue by helping kids become fit through free, school-based running fitness programs.To make these school programs possible, ING Run For Something Better works with community partners and provides much needed grants through your fundraising efforts and donations. As a result, together we’re getting kids on the move and on the road to physical fitness.
The mission of the nonprofit program, ING Run For Something Better, is to prevent obesity in children by making fitness opportunities available in schools. We want to introduce kids to the benefits of running and physical fitness and empower children with the means to achieve a healthy lifestyle that they can maintain for the long term. And we’re making it fun for kids, too!
ING Run For Something Better was presented with the Healthy Youth for a Healthy Future Champion Award from the Surgeon General for its work to prevent childhood obesity and encourage healthy choices. Read more.
ING Run For Something Better is managed by the ING Community Fund, Inc., an accredited 501(c)(3) charity.
