The Oliver Foundation is a Houston-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is committed to preventing childhood obesity through education and support. Founded in 1995 by Mrs. William B. Oliver Cluthe, the foundation provides technical assistance and nutrition and physical activity education materials to grant recipients, with a focus on creating sustainable environments for healthy habits.
Working in partnership with Baylor College of Medicine, the Oliver Foundation has achieved significant weight loss in elementary-age overweight and obese children in one of Texas' largest school districts. Through an intensive intervention program, the foundation integrates healthy eating habits and physical activity into the school day, resulting in a positive impact on students' overall health and well-being. By empowering educators, parents, and professionals, the Oliver Foundation strives to create a cultural shift towards healthier lifestyles for children.
