The Live Well Project: To Serve and Educate Young Women on March 13

San Diego, CA, February 02, 2010 -- Optimal Nutrition Inc., Olive PR Solutions, and LandMark Events present The Live Well Project, a special event committed to educating underprivileged young women with basic knowledge of health and fitness that they can integrate into their lives in order to nourish and strengthen their minds and bodies.

Date: Saturday, March 13, 2010, 10am to 4pm

Location: Downtown San Diego on 335 6th Ave in b/w J & K: www.culywarehouse.com

Why: In San Diego, there are between 1,500 and 2,000 young adults without a home. Some run away from abusive homes, some have lost their families to illness or violence. These young adults need support, education, inspiration, leadership, empowerment, and awareness. Optimal Nutrition, LandMarK Events, & Olive PR Solutions share a passion for health and fitness and have invited many local professionals to get involved in this one-day event to inspire and empower our youth. Many underprivileged young individuals lack basic knowledge of health and fitness. Learning to nourish and strengthen their bodies is an important step in taking control of their lives.

Youth on the street often turn to drugs, alcohol, and violence as an escape from what may seem like unchangeable circumstances. Those who are taken into shelters have been blessed with the opportunity to rise from adversity. The next step is to empower them with the knowledge and confidence they need to build better lives for themselves.

“I believe it only takes a spark. A glimpse of the benefits of health and an assurance that it can be achieved simply with adequate knowledge opens up doors: new friends, curiosity of more health education, easy and inexpensive cooking techniques, seeking out mentors, being challenged, new horizons and boundless opportunities.” said Michelle Weinstein, president of Optimal Nutrition Inc. “Most importantly, it paves the road to emotional and physical well-being.”

Our Team wants to emphasize the importance of health and confidence to young women through a special day of fitness, health, and self-esteem boosting events. Our target group is 12-19 year old inner city girls. The mission is to share the knowledge that a parent would: how to take care for oneself physically and emotionally.

The day will include activities related to feeling beautiful on the inside and out, fitness, and healthy eating. Giveaways and prizes will include: clothing, grooming kits, manicure/pedicure, & hair styling gift certificates. We will create a fun and educational environment with talks/seminars on healthy eating and volunteer-lead exercise groups. Donations from nutritional, local fitness facilities, clothing and sporting companies will provide the guests with tangible memories of the day!

To make the most out of this unique and special event, each young woman will be paired with a “mentor for the day,” a local female entrepreneur, to question, confide in, and learn from. We hope to foster connections that will span beyond just this day, giving these girls knowledge and access to women who can inspire, educate and support them on their journey.
