Send a letter to your local MP to address the issues of health and social inequalities among Canadian children.

The Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada is working with Today's Parent to highlight the poor state of Canadian children's health in the area of fitness and healthy eating, particularly among those children living in disadvantaged communities.

Here’s what you can do - Send a letter to your MP:

1) Copy and paste the letter at http://www.bgccan.com/todaysparent.asp into an email to your MP. Or feel free to compose your own letter!
2) Find your MP’s email address; all you need is your postal code. Just head to http://www2.parl.gc.ca/Parlinfo/Compilations/HouseOfCommons/MemberByPostalCode.aspx

the impact

Your support will help make our legislators aware that Canadian parents want more healthy, accessible, affordable and active after-school programs for kids.
