An New Way to Feed the Needy by Losing Weight
aPortion.org addresses the challenges of obesity and starvation by providing a new incentive for weight loss that links employer or insurance company donations to employee weight loss.
With over 30% of the US population identified as obese based on their BMI (Body Mass Index) and with over 16 million people starving worldwide, there is a compelling opportunity to apportion some of our excess to fill some of the starving worlds needs.
For US employers and individuals the benefits of weight loss are tangible in lower health and life insurance costs, fewer sick days and reduced consumption of natural resources.
Despite the benefits, for many of us the incentives for loosing the extra pounds is not compellling enough, but what if our weight loss was an opportunity to bring needed resources to a starving child?
