    Logo

    The heart of the fightGLOBESITY movement is captured by Mahatma Gandhi’s quote, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” Hence, our logo demonstrates a person in a starting position – jumping, moving forward – ready to start now. The image rests within an unfinished globe. The open circle represents the success of the movement: reducing obesity worldwide.” Finally, the open hands of the image symbolizes the importance of reaching back to pull someone else forward into the movement, hence, Let’s Start Now!
