2. INTRODUCTION
A premier NAFTA transportation provider, Tri-National,
Inc., operates through the central corridor on the United
States. Based in Earth City, Missouri, it transports items
between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Dedicated to
supporting its community, Tri-National, Inc., supports
several charitable organizations, including Kids Under
Twenty One (KUTO).
As part of its mission to promote emotional well-being and
prevent suicide among youth, KUTO maintains several
programs, including Winning With Wellness (WWW). A
service learning project, WWW calls upon students to
identify critical health issues that their school may be
facing.
3. KUTO’S WINNING
The project address six categories: chemical-
free living, nutrition, physical activity,
environment, safety, and positive self-concept.
The WWW project encourages students to work
together with their peers, community, and
families to design ways to fix the health issues
at their school. KUTO hopes that by combining
peer mentoring and health education, young
individuals can make better choices when it
comes to such things as alcohol and nutrition.
