HEALTH
A Healthier Path Forward
A Healthier Path Forward is our bold initiative to tackle childhood obesity in Louisville’s West End by addressing the root causes of health disparities. In partnership with Render Capital and supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, we’re investing in community-driven, system-level solutions that promote long-term wellness for our youth. This effort is more than a program—it’s a call to reimagine how health equity can thrive in our neighborhoods.
This project will support a challenge focused on finding and funding innovators and entrepreneurs who are addressing the structural barriers that contribute to childhood obesity.
If you’re an innovator, watch this space for our problem statement and link to application materials (Fall 2025).
If you’re a stakeholder, email Project Manager Ebony O’Rea for more information about how to get involved.
If you’re a community member, we want to hear from you! Take our survey, or join us at one of our upcoming community conversation sessions.
