DEFINE your inspiration (dyi)
DEFINE Your Inspiration (dyi) is a Houston-based non-profit organization dedicated to inspire young women and men in low income areas how to live healthier and more rewarding lives by encouraging them to define their health, education, and personal goals.
High school students in the greater Houston area will learn about nutrition and making healthy food choices, which will in turn foster greater self-esteem, positive body images, increased attendance and productivity, and promote educational and career goals.
Through a series of classes which will be taught by volunteers and mentors, the students will learn about primary and secondary foods to build their self-esteem, learn what foods are better choices even on a budget, identify their personal, education, and career goals, and pursue part-time work that is consistent with these goals.
