🎉 Congratulations to the Pine Street Senior Center participants who completed the 12-week “Know Your Numbers” Healthy Habits class!
Facilitated by Cathy Hunt as part of the Weigh Forward Project, participants learned to understand blood pressure numbers, make healthier food choices, stay hydrated, read nutrition labels, and build healthy habits.
During their graduation celebration, participants put their knowledge to the test by answering questions based on what they learned—such as how much water they should drink each day—for a chance to win door prizes! They shared how much they enjoyed the class and said they look forward to participating in more programs.
Would you like to bring a Healthy Habits class to your church or organization? Call us at 910-734-6175 or send us a message in our inbox.

As part of the Weigh Forward Project, we were excited to participate in the Safe City event organized by the Robeson County Health Department and Safe Kids Robeson County. Safe City is a fun, educational event designed to teach children how to prevent injuries and stay safe in everyday situations.

We challenged the children to become “Safe & Healthy Heroes” by practicing healthy habits—choosing nutritious foods, staying active, wearing seat belts and bike helmets, following pool safety rules, and making smart choices wherever they go.

More than 280 children from the Robeson County Parks and Recreation Department’s summer camps participated! It was definitely a hot day, but it was also a wonderful event filled with learning, laughter, and fun.

Thank you to the Robeson County Health Department for organizing this important event and allowing the Weigh Forward Project to participate!

As part of our Weigh Forward Project, we recently hosted a Healthy Habits and Fatty Liver classes for the senior group at Faith Deliverance Center of Truth on July 17 and July 24.

Facilitated by Cathy Hunt, these interactive sessions focused on practical ways to build healthier habits, make better food choices, increase energy and confidence, and support overall health. Participants also learned more about fatty liver disease and steps they can take to improve their well-being through nutrition and lifestyle changes.

Each participant received a $10 Food Lion gift card to help them put what they learned into practice!

These classes were made possible through a partnership with the American Diabetes Association–Obesity, Robeson County Parks and Recreation, and Resourceful Connections of North Carolina.

We’re excited to share a few pictures from these wonderful sessions! If your group or organization is interested in participating in a Healthy Habits class, please feel free to contact us for more information.

Did you know that staying hydrated can help improve energy, support healthy digestion, and reduce the temptation to snack when you're not actually hungry?
This week, challenge yourself to drink more water and move your body for at least 30 minutes each day.
Small steps can lead to big changes.

Over the past few weeks, the Weigh Forward Project has had the opportunity to participate in two incredible community events: the Robeson County Senior Games Awards Ceremony and Prosperity Performance: A Fitness & Financial Wellness Event.
At both events, Cathy Hunt and Yazmine provided free blood pressure screenings and distributed Blood Pressure Passports to help participants track and monitor their blood pressure over time. These simple tools can help individuals take charge of their health and stay informed about their numbers.
During the Prosperity Performance event, Cathy also served as a panel speaker, sharing the important message that “Health is Wealth.” Good health is one of our most valuable assets, and investing in our physical well-being can positively impact every area of our lives.
We are grateful to the organizers of both events for inviting the Weigh Forward Project to be part of these meaningful opportunities. Together, we can continue promoting healthier lifestyles, increasing awareness, and empowering our communities to make informed health decisions.
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of the conversation and the movement toward a healthier Robeson County!

🌟 Partner Spotlight: Robeson County Safe Kids 🌟
This week, we are proud to highlight one of our valued partners in the Robeson Partners in Action Coalition — Robeson County Safe Kids, led by April Oxendine with the Robeson County Health Department.
At our recent coalition meeting, April Oxendine led a powerful Hot Car Demonstration, showing just how quickly temperatures inside a vehicle can become dangerous — and even deadly. ☀️🚗🌡️
This message is especially important as tragic incidents continue to happen across our nation.
Over just 24 hours last week, three children lost their lives in hot cars:
💔 5/20/26 – Fredericksburg, VA – 2-month-old
💔 5/20/26 – Brookwood, AL – 1-year-old
💔 5/19/26 – Los Angeles, CA – 4-year-old
Already this year, at least five children nationwide have died in hot cars.
According to Kids and Car Safety:
▪️ At least 1,177 children have died in hot cars nationwide since 1990
▪️ More than 7,500 children survived with varying injuries
▪️ Approximately 86% of children who die are age 3 or younger
▪️ The majority of cases involve children unknowingly left behind by loving and responsible caregivers
These heartbreaking statistics remind us that this can happen to anyone — and awareness saves lives.
✔️ Always check the back seat
✔️ Place a purse, phone, or shoe in the back as a reminder
✔️ Keep vehicles locked when not in use
✔️ If you see a child alone in a vehicle, call 911 immediately
We are thankful for partners like Robeson County Safe Kids who continue working to educate and protect our community through prevention and awareness. 💚

For the past 6 weeks, Cathy has had the pleasure of leading Healthy Habits with the Pine Street Senior Group as part of the Weigh Forward Initiative — encouraging healthier choices and building lifelong habits together. 💚
On May 19th, the group wrapped up their final class with a special grocery store tour at Food Lion on Roberts Ave, where participants learned how to read labels, make healthier food choices, and even sample healthier foods and smoothies.
A special thank you to Food Lion for partnering with us and to Manager Melissa Strickland for helping organize this wonderful experience! Each participant also received a $10 Food Lion gift card to put their healthy shopping skills into action.
This is what partnerships in action look like — learning, growing, and making healthier choices together! 💚
