About Us
Because obesity is real and its results are deadly, Fit 4 A Kid is dedicated to work
hard to help tackle the situation!




Fit 4 A Kid is a community-based, Non Profit Organization, located in Central
Mississippi.  In a world where so many people-especially children- are suffering from
obesity, more and more programs of this sort will be needed. The primary goal and
mission of
Fit 4 A Kid is to assist central Mississippi and the Mississippi Delta in
providing quality care for its youth.

Fit 4 A Kid was founded by Mr. & Mrs. Sherman Riddle in 2008, and although very
young in the profession, Mr. Riddle has received his degree in Physical Education and
has worked with youth in various capacities. He has coached boys and girls basketball,
slow and fast pitch softball, and has taught physical education using the benchmarks
mandated by the state of Mississippi.

Mrs. Riddle has received her Master’s degree from the University of Mississippi and is
currently working on a Ph.D in Educational Leadership and Administration. She has
assisted her husband in coaching softball for the past two years, and has a passion for
helping children. Knowing all too well the affects of living a non-active life, Mrs.
Riddle suffers from Hypertension and Type II Diabetes. Having to leave the classroom
due to these illnesses, and not wanting this to be the story of other young people, she
and her husband actively developed
Fit 4 A Kid.
