Through their commitment to the Let's Move! program, the WAT-AAH!
Foundation continues their pledge to fight childhood obesity. The
foundation raises awareness not only through this PSA video but also
through billboards and media across major markets such as New York,
Boston, Chicago, Atlanta, and Los Angeles. The PSA, directed by Charles
Nordeen of Light of Day Productions, features the celebrities dancing and
moving to Beyonce's flash workout theme song "Move Your Body." The
celebrities share encouraging messages, such as "You've got it!" and "Keep
it going," to inspire the young viewers to keep dancing.

On May 1st at 1:42pm EDT, Move Your Body's national initiative will kick
off with hubs in New York City and Los Angelesaccompanied by schools all
across the nation including Washington D.C., Atlanta, Chicago, Boston,
Philadelphia, San Diego,Phoenix, Portland and Jacksonville. The special
events will feature celebrity appearances and performances by Hollywood
Records artists Bella Thorne and Coco Jones, teen heartthrob Jacob
Latimore , as well as pop group Mindless Behavior

In 2011, WAT-AAH! joined The National Association of Broadcasters
Educational Foundation (NABEF), who teamed up with Beyonce as she debuted
"Move Your Body," for the Let's Move! Flash Workout. The song and music
video instructed a pre-choreographed dance routine re-recorded from her
hit single "Get Me Bodied." It was performed simultaneously by thousands
of school children on May 3rd. The event gained global recognition as

in Washington, D.C.(http://ow.ly/k7s8L)

In 2012, due to the overwhelming requests from both students and teachers,
WAT-AAH! took on the challenge and spearheaded the event. Not wanting to
disappoint the kids, WAT-AAH! strived to make it an even bigger event
involving thousands of kids and NFL/NBA athletes in its nationwide Move
Your Body 2012 event (bit.ly/ZdEfiC).
"Thanks to the kids, Move Your Body has taken on a life of its own," says
Rose Cameron , CEO and Founder of WAT-AAH!. "The WAT-AAH! Foundation is
committed to facilitating this event for the thousands of participating
students, acknowledging their hard work and their desire to live healthy
lives. It has become more than a fun, well-choreographed exercise routine
with great music, it is a celebration of the children's efforts to stay
healthy and the WAT-AAH! Foundation will not abandon them. May 1st is the
day we celebrate the children and applaud their efforts," she adds.

Over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates in America have
tripled, and today, nearly one in three children in America are overweight
or obese. The numbers are even higher in African American and Hispanic
communities, where nearly 40% of the children are overweight or obese.
Studies have shown that chronic obesity-related health problems can cause
such diseases as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, and
asthma among children.

This year, the WAT-AAH! Foundation looks to encourage even more schools to
take part in the campaign and spread the message of healthy hydration and
physical activity to even more students. To resonate with kids and teens,
WAT-AAH!, recently profiled in Forbes as one of the fastest growing
functional water brands in the U.S. and Billboard for their fun and
contemporary marketing approaches in their initiatives and their exclusive
celebrity affiliations. Some of its major partnerships have included young
celebrities such as The OMG Girlz, Diggy Simmons , Willow Smith , Nick
Cannon , Ryan Beatty , Cody Simpson , along with NFL/NBA athletes such as
Marques Colston of the New Orleans Saints, Pat Peterson of the Arizona
Cardinals and Lou Williams of the Atlanta Hawks, who have come together to
take a stand for kid's health.

than their parents largely due to childhood obesity. Inspired by her two
boys and Cameron's 20+ years of experience in brand building and
developing successful national marketing campaigns for various industries,
she and her sons worked together to design WAT-AAH!'s screaming boy logo
and its first line of functional products, which entered the market in
2008. Since then, WAT-AAH! has aimed to make water "cool" and contemporary
to kids and teens to encourage their consumption. WAT-AAH! is available in
