AIM High

Advocacy, Inspiration & Mentorship

AIM High is a 7-week leadership series of Advocacy, Inspiration and Mentorship. The wellness program pairs groups of teens with leading advocates in our community to engage them in meaningful dialogue and thought-provoking conversations, with the hope of inspiring them via mentorship to pursue their highest potential in all areas of health and well-being.

Nourish to Flourish

Fitness & Nutrition

Young people and their families in our Nourish to Flourish program are referred to us by pediatricians, school administrators, teachers, counselors, family therapists, and other organizations working with children who need help and guidance with fitness and nutrition.

Socialization

Fun Activities Indoors and Out

To complement our Nourish to Flourish curriculum and the AIM High series, we offer healthy, fun and safe activities that participants of both programs can experience and enjoy. Whether it’s monthly fitness challenges, TGIF Friday events like karaoke, gaming or movie nights, or taking advantage of our small group training classes, there are plenty of exciting fitness and social opportunities with both mentors and peers.

Welcome

The Noble Path Foundation

The mission of The Noble Path Foundation is to ensure a healthy future for our children by raising healthy children to inhabit our world.

Our Nourish to Flourish and AIM High programs are designed to help young people reach their highest potential by educating them on the importance of what they eat, how they move, and with whom they interact.

We offer fun and engaging social events in a safe and comforting environment; encourage creativity
and leadership skills via workshops and mentorship; and promote a variety of enrichment activities with community partners to broaden interests and cultivate wholesome habits.

Our goal is to provide a total wellness approach to offset the many challenges the youth of our communities face each day. We strive to put them on a path towards a brighter future and better health.
