YOU Can Join the Fight to End Weight Bias by Making a Charitable Gift Today!

Help the OAC End Weight Bias Today!

The season of giving is here and, as you may have noticed, it’s a special time of year for organizations across the globe! This is especially true for the Obesity Action Coalition (OAC), producers of the Your Weight Matters Campaign, who have one particularly strong goal in mind this holiday season: End Weight Bias.

As someone who is familiar with the journey involving weight and health, you likely understand how weight bias can be discouraging and destructive to one’s own experience with overweight or obesity. In fact, obesity stigma and weight bias are major and concerning issues, and they are the last socially acceptable form of discrimination in our society today.

Here at the OAC, we imagine a world where all individuals, regardless of weight or size, are treated with dignity and respect. We envision a world FREE of weight biasHowever, to achieve that world, we need YOUR help!

How Can You Help End Weight Bias?

End Weight Bias!YOU can help us achieve a world free of weight bias by joining our fight and
making a charitable gift to the OAC’s weight bias initiative fund. By supporting this mission, you are helping the OAC, producers of the Your Weight Matters Campaign, to expand its efforts to fight against weight bias and put an end to the unfair stigma against weight.

Your charitable donation will help the OAC put people first (not their weight!) in the following ways:

  • Producing a national television PSA combatting weight bias
  • Developing national outreach campaigns to raise awareness of weight bias and its damaging effects
  • Expanding outreach of the new OAC Image Gallery (To learn more about the OAC Image Gallery and its vision of fighting weight bias through positive imagery, please CLICK HERE)
  • Sustaining the OAC’s efforts through weight bias alerts informing others on how to join the fight against stigma

With help from our followers and supporters who are on the journey with weight and health, we CAN take great strides forward in our fight to eliminate weight bias and stigma. So, this holiday season, we ask that you please keep the OAC and the Your Weight Matters Campaign in mind during your end-of-year giving!
