Dewey Does Foundation – Fighting Childhood Obesity

What does Dewey Does do? Cartoon Character Helps Animate Millions Of Kids

A sports-themed cartoon character who is by no means a sports jock, but rather an ordinary kid with an extraordinary understanding of fair play and working hard. One who takes joy and pride in playing as best as he can, win, lose, or draw. What does Dewey Does do? Dewey Does 110 percent at anything he endeavors to do and with his “can do philosophy”, he is the latest phenomenon sweeping across America.

With obesity and poor nutritional habits at an all-time high in this country, a new effort is needed to address this national epidemic. Young children need to learn the importance of healthy eating habits and how an active life through sports will improve their quality of life throughout their entire life. We feel youth will follow a message with greater interest when the message is connected to a recognizable character that inspires and motivates children to exercise and Get Their Sports On!!!
