Welcome to Fab to be Fit Foundation!

Here at Fab to be Fit, we are a not for profit Foundation dedicated to raising public awareness about childhood obesity in Australia. The goal is to raise as much funding as possible, which will be allocated to children suffering physical, mental & emotional disabilities as well as for those Primary schools across NSW considered as living in high density Indigenous or low socio-economic/disadvantaged schooling communities.

Compared to children in other developed nations, Australian kids are more overweight, and prone to obesity. This is especially the case with kids from poorer backgrounds. We want to change this and make things fairer. No child should ever face such disadvantages no matter their background.

Rich or poor – every child in Australia has the right to a healthy and happy life!

Who We Are

Fab to be Fit Foundation, ABN 48 624 690 633, is a 'Health Promotion' charity registered with ACNC (Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission) and is endorsed by the ATO with full Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) status.

Our purpose is to raise funds to advance education, and introduce specialised programs to help reduce childhood obesity across Australian schools in disadvantaged communities. Generally speaking these are of a lower socio-economic background.

Our aim is to achieve this through the introduction of fun, structured physical activity programs to increase fitness levels and by improving the eating habits of the children who attend these schools. We want to give kids in these school communities a similar start in life to their peers from more fortunate and advantaged backgrounds - often just a few kilometres down the road.

You can help us do this by joining our team or by donating to our cause !

Our Mission

Our mission, which is really our approach, is best summed up as the following:

To increase awareness of childhood obesity across Australia and the world
Through dedicated effort and work, help in the elimination of childhood obesity
Make parents, society and governments take responsibility for their part in this epidemic
To encourage children to be active from a young age and empower them with healthy and tasty food choices.

Concern over Australian Children

Within the Australian scientific and health community, there is a growing concern that our children’s health and fitness is declining compared to other developed nations. What’s worse is that children from low socio-economic backgrounds are declining at twice the rate of those from more affluent backgrounds.

Research shows that children and young people from low socio-economic backgrounds are significantly more at risk at being overweight and obese. This further adds to the health and social disadvantages they face throughout the lives.
