UTH

Sponsorship Package

The Challenge-RGV 2026 marks our 17th season, and we are excited to bring yet another year of healthy lifestyle
motivation to the Rio Grande Valley! This free community wellness program kicks off on Saturday, January 24, and is a
collaboration between the UTHealth Houston School of Public Health in Brownsville, the City of Brownsville, community
partners, and sponsors.

 

The Challenge-RGV provides participants with the tools and opportunities to make sustainable healthy lifestyle changes
and lose weight when appropriate. Over the course of three months, participants have free access to gyms, exercise
classes, health screenings, cooking classes, healthy food options, and community events. We emphasize the importance
of social support in overcoming obstacles, and highly encourage participants to recruit their family, friends, and
colleagues to register as a group. Activities are free to the public, draw hundreds of families from across the RGV, and
include significant media coverage through TV, radio, print, and social media. This event is your opportunity to be an
agent of healthy lifestyle change in your community while promoting your business or organization.
