About Bubble Foundation: Bubble believes that every child in the United States, regardless of
socioeconomic status, will have access to activities and food that help
him or her to live a healthy and happy life.
Each Bubble adventure begins with a charter school that shares this
mission. Together, we design a nutrition and fitness program that
complements and expands on the school’s current efforts, filling in gaps
left by lack of funding or resources. Bubble Foundation provides this
education at no cost to the school through the support of volunteers and
fundraising efforts.
