Program Manager

FLIPANY is disrupting the way health and wellness support is offered to communities that have been historically ignored. We serve nutritious food, encourage healthy eating and get people to move. Whether we are working with partners to connect families to food, teaching kids to dice veggies or kick a ball, or designing customized health and wellness programs, FLIPANY takes an active, 'hands-on' approach.

We incorporate life skills into all of our programs to increase the emotional wellbeing and resilience of the kids and families we serve. We push beyond boundaries and explore every opportunity to offer creative health and wellness initiatives that will inspire people to transform their lives forever.
