Get Up! Get Moving! is the nation’s premier annual Hispanic family physical activity and healthy lifestyle event presented by the National Alliance for Hispanic Health and hosted by OneWorld Community Health Centers. This free event promotes fitness, good nutrition and wellness for people of all ages and sizes through health screenings, organized physical activities, and information attendees can take home. We have combined the event with our annual Back to School Bash which started as a patient appreciation day and now supplies hundreds of children backpacks filled with school supplies every year.
Children will receive a “passport” as they enter that they must take around to different booths to complete a health screening, physical activity or receive information in order to receive a stamp on their passport. Passports with 3 or more stamps may be turned in for a backpack and to be entered into raffle drawings!
As a volunteer for this event you can expect to help distribute backpacks, help at registration, distribute fruits and veggies, assist in setup and tear down, and additional tasks that may come up.
