Livliga Healthy Lifestyle Brand Launches a "1 for 1" Campaign to Help Kids Live Healthier Lives During September By Donating Kidliga Sets and Big Discounted Pricing
Boulder, Colorado (PRWEB) September 05, 2017 -- In light of National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month this September, Livliga®, a patented line of portion control dinnerware, will be collaborating with two stellar hospitals—Children’s Mercy Kansas City in Missouri and Children’s Hospital Colorado to help bring awareness to the growing obesity epidemic which affects approximately 12.7 million children in the United States. Livliga’s® children’s brand, Kidliga, is launching a “1 for 1” campaign to help kids live healthy. Each time someone buys a Livliga product during September, a set of Kidliga will be donated to children participating in a weight management program either at the Center for Children’s Healthy Lifestyles & Nutrition (CCHLN) at Children’s Mercy Kansas City or Children’s Hospital Colorado. Through the collaboration, Livliga, will also provide unique news and information surrounding healthy eating for families including a new e-book, recipes, cooking demonstrations and giveaways, all in support of the fight against childhood obesity.
Through Kidliga, which features child-friendly plates, bowls and mugs, and an award-winning children’s book, entitled Sammie & Sax in the Land of Quinoa: The Search for a Balanced Meal, kids are introduced to the concept of healthy, balanced eating. The complete product line helps to educate and engage families in an interactive experience through visually intuitive dishware and the nutritionally-focused adventure book. Kidliga is a primary tool in Livliga’s overall mission to promote children’s health. Through Livliga’s collaboration with nationally recognized weight management programs, the goal is to provide a hands-on experience to kids and their families about how fun and easy it is for kids to cook, what just right portions look like and ways to embrace healthy eating habits. In addition to the “1 for 1” campaign being offered in September, Kidliga is being sold at LivligaHome.com and Amazon for a significantly reduced price of $29.99 (normally $49.95).
Founder and CEO of Livliga®, native Kansas Citian, and former Executive Director of the American Heart Association in Denver, CO, Sheila Kemper Dietrich states, “We are thrilled at the opportunity to collaborate with two leading and forward-thinking hospitals—Children’s Mercy Kansas City in Missouri and Children’s Hospital Colorado to help raise awareness regarding the childhood obesity epidemic while at the same time promoting all kids living healthy lives.”
Dr. Ann Davis, Center Director for The Center for Children’s Healthy Lifestyles & Nutrition, commented, “We are excited to join forces with Livliga to bring much needed awareness to the public about the status of children’s health in the US. We are pleased to team up with this health-focused company to raise awareness around childhood obesity. Kidliga is a fun and engaging product for all children to enjoy and learn about healthy eating.
