Children today struggle with obesity, poor nutrition, dental disease and other health issues. HealthWorks! helps to reduce kid’s health risks through fun, engaging, interactive exhibits and programs. HealthWorks! Kids' Museum educates and inspires children and their families to make great health choices so they live longer, healthier lives.
HealthWorks! is the only venue in St. Louis solely dedicated to health "edutainment". We help families improve health outcomes by addressing key health issues negatively impacting our communities by establishing healthy habits at a young age. Our museum impacts over 30,000 children and caregivers annually and focuses on building strong health habits in oral health, nutrition, physical activity, medicine safety, hygiene, conflict resolution and so much more.
As a 501(c) 3, we rely on the support of individuals, corporations and foundations who want to make a positive impact on the health of our community. We also rely on strong strategic partnerships with local universities, nonprofits and school districts to target our efforts and reach children in underserved communities.
Want to help kids live longer healthier lives? Ignite the curiosity in tens of thousands of children. Get their feet moving and teach them how to take care of their smiles. Empower them to use their hands to choose healthy fruits and veggies when packing their lunches or choosing snacks. Inspire them to make healthy choices. Join HealthWorks! and make health fun!
