PHIT America

PHIT America is a national non-profit organization dedicated to improving the health and wellness of children by promoting physical activity and sports. Founded in 2013 by Jim Baugh, the organization focuses on combating the "Inactivity Pandemic" through grassroots programs, advocacy, and legislative support for the PHIT Act. Their flagship initiatives, such as the AMPED program and GO! Grants, provide schools with the resources needed to implement daily physical activity for students. By increasing physical activity levels, PHIT America aims to reduce long-term healthcare costs and improve academic performance and mental health among youth. The organization collaborates with various sports and fitness industry leaders to amplify its message and reach.
