Press Release

Shannon Miller Foundation

AMERICA’S MOST DECORATED GYMNAST, SHANNON MILLER, AIMS TO BRING AWARENESS TO CHILDHOOD OBESITY.

Shannon Miller recently announced the formation of the Shannon Miller Foundation, which is dedicated to fighting childhood obesity. Today, an estimated one third of all children in the United States are overweight, while the occurrence of obesity has more than quadrupled in the last 25 years. This epidemic leads to life threatening issues such as heart disease, asthma, hypertension and type II diabetes. Through education and awareness of the health risks associated with this disease Shannon strives to make a positive impact on children’s health. The Shannon Miller Foundation offers children the opportunity to be physically active, and gain greater nutritional knowledge.

The Shannon Miller Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Funds to support this Foundation are raised through corporate and personal contributions, as well as special events.
