CATCH Champions: Inese Alvarez and RSVP of Summit County
Inese Alvarez brought CATCH to the RSVP Volunteer Program of Summit County three years ago, and they've been putting on amazing summer programming ever since. “I’ve been very passionate about this program,” Inese said of CATCH. “It’s a wonderful curriculum... You can see that the kids are retaining concepts even after a short period of time, and they’re really understanding.” Learn more about Inese and RSVP here.
Our friends at OASIS recently started on a six week journey to improve the habits of children in their communities. The "CATCH Healthy Habits" campaign, which has engaged over 3,000 adult volunteers aged 50+, will impact the lives of 16,700 children, leading them to healthier decision making for a lifetime. Find out more on our blog, and check out one of their very cool health-centric Hollywood remakes below!
