The Obesity Action Coalition (OAC), Founder of the Your Weight Matters Campaign, wishes everyone a happy and healthy holiday season! No matter how you spend it, we hope it’s filled with joy, peace and all things special.
Happy Holidays Indeed – A Year in Review
During this time of year, we especially like to reflect on all of the things we are grateful for. For the OAC, 2017 was a landmark year. We worked closely with our community to improve the lives of the more than 93 million Americans affected by obesity in the following ways:
- Advocating for access to science-based, respectful and comprehensive medical care/treatment
- Fighting weight bias, stigma and discrimination
- Educating the public about weight and its impact on health
- Raising Awareness about obesity/weight and the realities of people impacted
- Changing Lives of people who struggle with weight or care for someone who does
Will You Consider Making a Charitable Gift to Help the OAC Further Our Efforts?
The Your Weight Matters Campaign is just one example of the OAC’s many initiatives. Our organization is dedicated to giving a voice to individuals affected by obesity through education, advocacy and support – but we can’t do it without the help of people just like you.
Thank you for taking the time this year to learn more about why your weight matters and stay connected with the great weight/health education we strive to provide.
Now, will you consider making a special holiday gift to ensure more of our work can continue?
When you make a tax deductible, year-end contribution to the OAC, your generosity helps fuel each of our focused initiatives and impact the lives of real people. No matter the size of your gift – whether it’s $10, $20, $50 or $100 – you help us drive change. Thank you for your continued support, passion and community.
