Fundación España Activa
The Fundación Vida Activa y Saludable is a non-profit organisation founded by GO fit and a member of its Board of Trustees. Its main goal is to encourage the practice of physical activity in society and get all agents and bodies involved in a cross-collaborative manner so as to promote an active and healthy lifestyle among the population.
The Fundación VAS held its 1st Congress at the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality under the title "Foundations to transform Spain into a more active, healthier and happier society". In turn, the Ministry launched a website about leading a healthy lifestyle, addressed to the general population.
