PHILADELPHIA, March 28, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Congressman Chaka Fattah (PA-02) sent a letter to President Obama today asking the Administration to redirect funds from the recent Department of Justice (DOJ) settlement with Toyota Motor Corporation to youth mentoring programs.rnrnFattah is recommending that fifty percent of the settlement go directly to the Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BCGA)—the largest mentoring youth organization in the country. The remaining half of the settlement would then be used to create a national youth mentoring fund, providing grants to organizations throughout the country. Fattah, who serves as the Ranking Member on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science (CJS) noted that there is a precedence of DOJ steering settlements to organizations for meaningful reinvestment in a specific cause.rnrnFattah said in the letter, “As DOJ and Toyota reach their final agreement it is my firm belief that the settlement funds could be used to tackle a big challenge affecting the nation – the lack of mentors for at-risk youth.” He added, “Mentoring must be a national priority—it is important to the future of our country.”rnrnAccording to MENTOR: The National Mentoring Partnership, approximately 16 million youth, including nine million at-risk youth, will reach age 19 without ever having a mentor. The same report indicates that at-risk youth with mentors are more likely to enroll in college, volunteer in their communities, and hold leadership positions than those without.rnrnFattah has introduced related legislation in Congress that would direct all fines, settlements, and penalties into a newly created FOCUS fund. The fund would assist an estimated 124 million Americans through youth mentoring and STEM education, medical research and innovation, and justice reinvestment programs.rnrnTo read the full letter sent to the President, click here.rnrnwww.fattah.house.govrnrnSOURCE Office of Congressman Chaka FattahrnrnrnRELATED LINKSrnhttp://fattah.house.gov/

More than 400 area employees volunteer at the Lighthouse Community Center as part of first annual Global Volunteer DayrnrnPHILADELPHIA, March 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — In Philadelphia, children and families face many challenges in eating a nutritious diet and living healthy lives. In fact, childhood obesity is reaching epidemic proportions with more than 40 percent of children in first through 12th grades considered obese or overweight.rnrnRecognizing this issue in its hometown of Philadelphia and around the globe, Aramark is extending its health and wellness platform and commitment, Healthy For Lifeâ„¢, into underserved communities. During the company’s inaugural Global Volunteer Day on March 19, hundreds of Philadelphia-area employees will join thousands of colleagues for more than 100 projects around the world in an effort to provide children and families with better access to healthy food, nutritional education and active play and physical activity spaces. rnrn”We are a company with a passion for service and a strong culture of volunteerism. Here in Philadelphia and across the globe today, our employees are demonstrating their commitment to building local communities,” said Eric Foss, Aramark President and CEO. “Our mission is to enrich and nourish lives today and throughout the year, leveraging the expertise of our employees to help people make the right nutrition choices and lead healthier lives.”rnrnToday at the Lighthouse Community Center in North Philadelphia, Aramark will establish a Healthy for Lifeâ„¢ Zone that will be a year-round hub of health and wellness education and awareness. Volunteers will provide families in need with healthy food options by renovating a food pantry and cultivating a rooftop produce garden. Working alongside children who attend the center daily, volunteers will assemble hundreds of nutritious meal kits for kids to bring home to share with their families.

Global Volunteer Day is just the latest example of Aramark’s dedication to our city and our neighborhoods.”rnrnIn communities like North Philadelphia where low-income residents have little access to nutritious and healthy options, childhood obesity and other health and wellness issues are at their worst. Aramark’s Healthy For Lifeâ„¢ community engagement program educates families on the simple steps and concepts such as finding healthy choices on a limited budget, preparing inexpensive, nutritious meals and introducing children to healthy food choices.rnrn”Aramark’s dedication to this city’s residents who are most in need has been a beacon for us at the Lighthouse,” said John Lavery, executive director of The Lighthouse. “We’re proud to continue our partnership with Aramark in bringing resources to help families live healthier lives in our neighborhood.”rnrnBeyond Philadelphia, volunteer projects will take place in cities across North America, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Spain, Germany, China, Korea, Belgium, Ireland, the Czech Republic, and India.
