OUR MISSION: To spread health worldwide and inspire youth and people of all ages to achieve optimal health, physically, mentally and spiritually and live productive, caring, happy lives.
 

Dear Friends of Bragg,

Your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health matters to me. Your health is probably the most important part of a happy, long life. I believe that we must each learn to improve our own personal health, and that each of us can take charge of changing bad habits and learning new good habits! All we need is encouragement, guidance and support from family and friends, nutritionists, and health food stores.

My whole life has been dedicated to teaching people how to live healthy, eat healthy and keep healthy and fit for a long healthy life! I have followed in my father’s footsteps to continue his teachings to the world. Paul C. Bragg was the originator of health food stores and founder of American health movement.

Through our company and Bragg Health Crusades, we have shared health and wise food information and health guidance to millions of people to help and inspire them to become healthier and prevent diseases.

We are in final planning for the Bragg Health Institute – Programs (a new nonprofit 501(c) (3) organization, tax ID# 27-0983248), physically located in Santa Barbara, California, on our beautiful 120 acre campus and organic farm.

With your help, the Bragg Health Institute will become a world center for the Bragg Healthy Lifestyle Education and Health Research. Our work for the next 100 years will build on the extensive educational efforts that our staff and volunteers provide on a daily basis and make an impact on the serious health issues facing all of us today.

Our projects for the Bragg Health Institute will include the Paul C. Bragg Memorial Library, Organic Medicinal Herb Gardens, Paul Bragg Memorial Rose Gardens, Bragg Healthy Lifestyle Videos and DVDs to major U.S. schools, Healthy Cuisine Teaching Demonstration Kitchen, Health Education Center, Organic Teaching Gardens, Bragg Nature and Farm Walks (educating tape stations on walks and gardens), Bragg Health Museum and Special Events and Health Programs.

Our board and staff are working with me to continue the Bragg tradition of health education, health lectures, health seminars, and publications on healthy lifestyle living. We teach youth in schools with health and organic gardening programs, and are providing scholarships to worthy students pursuing natural health science professions. We will continue to teach students about personal self-sufficiency, and being eco-friendly stewards of their health and body. We will encourage students to appreciate and protect their natural environment including the air, soil and water. Our board and staff are developing more plans for health projects, and are now securing special permits, where needed, to make all this go smoothly.

I am happy to announce we have started the Bragg Health Institute Campaign. A caring, most generous anonymous donor will provide up to $1,000,000 to match one-to-one every donation made for these projects. With your support Bragg Health Institute will continue the Paul C. Bragg teachings to America and the world. We hope to complete this funding campaign by December 31, 2010.

I invite you to partner with me in any amount you can spare, for this new nonprofit organization to promote the Bragg Health Teachings that are so needed, now more than ever!

You can become part of this Bragg Health Legacy with your tax-deductible donation. We will be recognizing all of our wonderful donors in special ways (please see the gift reply form on back). We will keep you informed of our progress along the health crusade path. We look forward to your gift in helping us teach the coming generations to live healthy lives. I thank you in advance for your support and prayers!
