MISSION & VISION
MISSION: Health Equity through Physical and Emotional Wellness in our comunity.
VISION: We envision a world where race, gender, ethnicity, disability, education, income, where you are from and who you love are no longer predictors of life and health outcomes.
STORY: Founded in 2017, ViVe Wellness addresses the health equity, physical wellness, and mental wellness needs of communities in Denver, Colorado that face significant health disparities and lack access to physical activity and health education.
Through partnerships with local organizations and donations secured through grants and private funding, ViVe Wellness promotes physical health, mental health, leadership, and social well-being to children and adults across Denver. ViVe's strategy is to create health equity by offering these programs in communities of need, in collaboration with local schools, families and organizations.
5800 children & their families learned to swim. Every year ViVe teaches over 500 kids & their families how to swim through our After School & Learn to Swim programs.
Over 60% of Latino & African American children do not know how to swim, increasing the drowning risk in our community.
