NEWARK — GOLO recently announced $10,000 donations to two Delaware charities, Special Olympics Delaware and the Food Bank of Delaware.

The effort continues the company’s commitment to supporting community-based health and wellness initiatives throughout the U.S.

Headquartered in Newark, GOLO empowers individuals and communities by helping them take control of their health and wellness. The company’s donations to Special Olympics Delaware and the Food Bank of Delaware will support a range of programming, including nutrition education, fitness programs, and food assistance.

“We are so grateful for this generous donation,” said Food Bank of Delaware Chief Development Officer Larry Haas. “GOLO’s generosity will enable us to provide 30,000 nutritious meals to Delawareans struggling to put meals on the table. Ensuring that food-insecure Delawareans have access to fresh foods for good health is a priority for us at the Food Bank of Delaware.”

“Our partnership with GOLO is a natural fit given their commitment to health and wellness and our own efforts to incorporate in our athletes’ mindset that the starting point for an optimal athletic performance is ensuring a healthy mind and body,” said Ann Grunert, executive director of Special Olympics Delaware. “GOLO’s sponsorship enables us to develop and implement overall training and wellness plans that will not only improve the athletic performances of our athletes short-term, but positively impact their long-term overall health and well-being.”
