Impacting Youth

Childhood obesity impacts everyone! Nearly 1/3 of children in America are either overweight or obese. In 2006, Don't Quit! founder, Jake Steinfeld, teamed up with Arnold Schwarzenegger to create the California Governor’s Council on Fitness & Sports, with a mission to combat this epidemic affecting over 23,000,000 kids and teenagers. When named Chairman of the National Foundation for Governors Fitness Councils (NFGFC), Jake focused on his belief that academics and fitness go hand in hand. Since then, Don't Quit! fitness centers have been placed in thirty-six states and counting!
