NBC's The Biggest Loser, General Mills, Subway, 24 Hour Fitness and Feeding America are partnering on the Pound For Pound Challenge, a program that encourages residents in Oklahoma and people across the country to lose weight nationally to help provide hunger relief locally.
For every pound of weight you pledge to lose, the Pound For Pound Challenge will donate 14 cents to Feeding America – enough to deliver one pound of groceries to the Regional Food Bank. Join the challenge today at www.PFPChallenge.com, enter your weight loss goal and help fight hunger in Oklahoma!
Let our Challenge Champions inspire you!
