KASH is a program designed to fight discrimination, racism, and childhood obesity in my community. The program is open to my entire county (Van Wert), and offers not only educationally recourse, but a healthy snack, and several fitness programs.
KASH kids are invited to our local YWCA, Monday thru Friday, from Three Thirty PM to Six O’clock PM, to children six to twelve years old. When the students first arrive, they are settled in, and mentored by local high school students on their homework and reading skills.
