Mission of Our Kohl's Keeping Kids Healthy Program
A community-wide nutrition and physical activity program, the Kohl’s Keeping Kids Healthy Program works to prevent and combat childhood obesity to improve children’s overall health and wellness.
We know that healthful eating and lifestyle habits are the foundation of good health, and help prevent obesity and other chronic diseases. Together we can make positive changes that have a big impact on our health.
