Mission

Project Fit America is a national non-profit organization that creates and donates exemplary fitness in education programming to elementary and middle schools. Under this umbrella we address self-esteem, fitness and exercise as fun, understanding the body, as well as, leadership, sportsmanship and character development. Our goal is to reverse the lack of fitness in youth to give teachers the tools they need to help teach children to take responsibility for their health and embrace healthy lifestyle choices with enthusiasm! Our mission is to get kids fit and to create programs that assure every child will find something at which they are very good at and inspire them to participate in more fitness activities. We create the opportunity for all kids, not just the already gifted athletes, to discover, explore, improve and be recognized for their physical, mental and fitness efforts and performance. As of 2025 PFA celebrates our 35th year of working with communities nationwide serving over 500,000 children in 300 cities in 46 states.
