YOUTH & FAMILY WELLNESS
Helping kids and families build healthy habits that can last a lifetime.
Healthy habits are easier to build when movement, confidence, education and connection are part of everyday life from the beginning.
AMAX Community Foundation creates and supports youth and family wellness programs that make movement approachable, practical and engaging while helping young people build confidence, physical literacy and healthier routines.
LEARN.
GROW.
THRIVE.
Creating positive experiences with movement, wellness and healthy habits.
WHY IT MATTERS
Healthy habits can start long before adulthood.
Movement helps children explore what their bodies can do, develop coordination, build confidence and experience the benefits of an active lifestyle.
When families, schools and communities make wellness part of everyday life, children have more opportunities to develop habits and skills that can support them for years to come.
WHAT WE FOCUS ON
Building a stronger foundation for lifelong wellness.
Youth wellness is about more than structured exercise. It includes movement skills, confidence, education, healthy habits and positive experiences that help young people feel successful.
Movement
Giving kids opportunities to move, play and develop confidence in being physically active.
Physical Literacy
Developing foundational movement skills such as balance, coordination, jumping, running and body control.
Confidence
Helping children discover what they can do in a supportive environment that celebrates progress.
Healthy Habits
Encouraging everyday routines around movement, wellness and positive lifestyle choices.
Education
Teaching age-appropriate health and wellness concepts in ways children and families can understand and use.
Family Connection
Creating opportunities for families to move, learn and build healthier routines together.
PHYSICAL LITERACY
Confidence in movement can open the door to a more active life.
Physical literacy is the development of movement skills, confidence and understanding that can help children feel more comfortable participating in physical activity.
The goal is not to create elite athletes. It is to help children develop the movement foundation they need to participate, explore and enjoy being active.

FOR SCHOOLS & YOUTH ORGANIZATIONS
Expand movement opportunities without building everything from scratch.
Schools, after-school programs, camps and youth organizations may want to offer additional wellness opportunities but not have the staff, curriculum or resources to create them internally.
AMAX Community Foundation can work with partners to identify the need and develop movement, wellness or educational programming that complements what is already available.
