Mama joins the fight against childhood obesity
Childhood obesity is more than a problem of being overweight. Childhood obesity puts kids at risk for developing chronic illnesses like heart disease, diabetes, and asthma.
Mama is launching a new program to help schools create community gardens. If your school needs help getting a community garden started, contact Mama and she will be happy to help.
Mama plants 1365 trees today

Mama plants 1001 trees!
We love our Facebook Fans. At the end of March, we had 1001 Facebook Fans. Today, we sent a donation to Trees for the Future to cover the cost of planting 1001 trees.
Last month, some of the trees we planted were used to create a grove of trees in Limuru, Kenya.
We still need your help. Our goal is to plant 10,000 trees each month. Yep. That is a lot of trees, but imagine the impact you can have on the planet just by becoming a MamasHealth Fan.
Can’t give up your Pickup truck or SUV? Still haven’t replaced your light bulbs with eco-friendly ones? I know, change is hard. That is why I’m asking you to become a Fan. You can make a difference without making a major life changing action.
Become a fan now. It is easy, fast, and best of all FREE. As an added bonus, Mama will have special giveaways for her Facebook fans. We’ll give away gift cards, exercise equipment, and much more!
