Supplementing our work with the nonprofit, LiveWell Colorado, to address our state’s obesity problem, we launched the Weigh and Win program in 2011, which provides financial incentives for Coloradans to achieve a healthy weight. We saw 15,000 people enroll in the first nine months of launching the program, and after one year, participants are reporting an average weight loss of 11% or 17 lbs. There are Weigh and Win sites in Fort Collins and Greeley.
In 2012, we provided a $90,000 donation to support the American Red Cross' Colorado Wildfire Relief efforts.
