What We Do
Who Are We?
Let’s Go! Gulf Coast was formed in 2013 with the goal of addressing childhood obesity. We are a public/private partnership with Board Members representing local businesses, organizations, non-profits, and the MS Department of Health. Our general Coalition Members represent dozens of organizations and the community all along the coast!
We are proudly a Fund of the Gulf Coast Community Foundation - that means that they help us manage all of our donations, grants, and finances, while providing us with guidance and support so that we can be the best non-profit organization we can be!
What Do We Do?
All of our programs focus on promoting healthy lifestyles and are designed to engage participants across the lifespan through diverse and varied platforms, in order to create the greatest and most sustainable impact possible for our youth and communities. Since 2013, we have successfully served thousands of individuals across the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We also maintain an open-door policy for program observation and cooperative learning.
We partner with early child care centers, schools, after-school programs, workplaces, and healthcare facilities so that we can collaborate and work together to address childhood obesity in our communities. Every partnership we have looks so different - what we implement and work on with one partner site may be completely different to what another partner site wants to focus on, and that’s alright! We are here to help and serve - for free! Our job is to assist others in developing, implementing, and maintaining wellness programs, policies, campaigns, and environmental changes so that your site can be the absolute best and healthiest it can be!
We’re always on the GO so make sure you follow us on social media so you can always be in the know!
