    Magic Bus, through the Nestlé Healthy Kids Programme, facilitates 400 Youth Leaders

    in Vizag and Mysore to help adolescents and young people

    • 400 young people will now carry forward the Magic Bus programme to its participants,
    in the communities of Vizag and Mysore

    Vizag, 23rd December 2018: Through the Nestlé Healthy Kids Programme, Magic Bus India
    Foundation, one of the largest behaviour change organisation in India, felicitates 400 CYL’s
    (Community Youth Leaders) in Mysore and Vizag, to carry forward the programme to its
    participants. The youth leaders have been carrying out sessions with adolescents in the
    communities over the last three years under the Nestlé Healthy Kids Programme, in
    collaboration with Nestlé India. The Programme has reached out to around 200,000
    adolescents across 19 states in 28 locations in India. More than 3,000 such Community Youth
    Volunteers are associated with the programme across locations.

    The objective of this programme is to create awareness about key nutrients, healthy eating, an
    active lifestyle and public health facilities among adolescents. Along with adolescents, this
    programme also include interaction with parents through workshops to encourage them to
    implement healthy eating habits in their homes

    The Magic Bus Childhood to Livelihood programme works with adolescents and young people
    from marginalized communities. The Nestle Healthy Kids programme in Mysore and Vizag has
    received continuous support from the youth leaders who understand the impact of creating
    self-sustaining communities and are dedicated to taking the programme forward.

    Magic Bus enables these Community Youth Leaders (CYL), who are the key people delivering
    the programme to all adolescents. They come from the same community as the adolescents,
    enabling a relationship that is both close and constant. Each CYL is trained in the sports activity-
    based curriculum to bring about changes in behaviour and practice. They work with the
    adolescent’s support structure; the parents, the School Management Committee, teachers and
    the community at large to ensure the change made results in social, emotional and economic
    well-being for all children living in that area.
    More than 400 CYL’s who are a part of Nestle Healthy Kids Programme were felicitated in
    Mysore and Vizag by district officials and Magic Bus to encourage their efforts in bringing about
    individual behavior change in adolescents living in these marginalised communities.

    Ms. Natasha Ramarathnam, Regional Director-South, Magic Bus India foundation said, “ Magic
    Bus is inspired by Nestlé India’s commitment to children’s development. It gives us immense
    pleasure to see that Magic Bus and Nestle India’s efforts to empower these young leaders have
    borne such good results, that they are ready to carry forward this programme to help others in
    the community take charge of their lives, similarly.”

    Magic Bus is one of the largest poverty alleviation programmes in India, impacting more than
    3,75,000 children and young people in 22 States and 77 districts of India in FY 17-18 alone. Its
    sports activity-based sessions are carried out across more than 798 schools. Magic Bus works
    with India’s poorest children and young people, taking them from a childhood full of challenges
    to a life with meaningful livelihoods. The Childhood to Livelihood programme ensures children
    complete secondary education, delay their age of marriage and are placed in jobs, making them
    economically self-reliant and socially empowered.

    In the last six years alone, Magic Bus has transformed almost a million children and young
    people, helping them move out of poverty. We equip young people with the skills and
    knowledge they need to grow up and move out of poverty. We also work in Nepal, Bangladesh
    and Myanmar.
