NEWARK, DE – February 5, 2024 - GOLO, the Delaware-based health and wellness solutions company, and Project Fit America (PFA), a national non-profit that creates and administers fitness in education programming for elementary and middle schools, announced that W.B. Simpson Elementary School has been selected to receive a grant to support its physical education curriculum. GOLO has committed $10,000 to support the fitness program designed by Project Fit America, which is also intended to help children build social, character, and leadership skills. 

"We are excited to partner with Project Fit America to bring this unique physical education program to the teachers and students of W.B. Simpson Elementary School," said Jennifer Brooks, President and Co-founder of GOLO. 

W.B. Simpson Elementary School was selected for the grant by Project Fit America after conducting an open call for proposals with all public schools in Delaware, including Kent, Sussex, and New Castle counties. 

"The W.B. Simpson team is forever grateful to GOLO and Project Fit America for this grant," said Brook Fuchs, Principal of W.B. Simpson Elementary School. "We know that having students engage in physical activity leads to improved attention, better working memory, and reduces off-task behaviors. This grant will not only help us promote healthy fitness habits but will also help improve learning conditions for all of our students." 

The academic focus of the grant program is to create "physically educated" children and to empower them to take personal responsibility for their health with enthusiasm. The program includes fitness equipment and a dynamic supplemental physical education curriculum with games, activities, and challenges for children. Project Fit America also provides support to the school for two years, along with on-site training with the school's physical education teacher representative. The first grant from GOLO and Project Fit America was awarded to John R. Downes Elementary in Newark, DE in 2023. 

"Thanks to GOLO and Project Fit of America, our students will benefit from the exposure to an abundance of new programming and equipment, enhancing their physical, social, and developmental abilities and providing them with a fun and engaging experience they will remember forever," said Karine Thibault Scott, Physical Education Teacher at W.B. Simpson Elementary School. 

Project Fit America programs are designed to help increase children's fitness levels and are customized to fit the specific needs of each individual school. Project Fit America programs are also intended to complement existing physical education programs and curricula. 

"We could not be more thrilled to team up with the marvelous staff and students at W.B. Simpson thanks to the generous donation from GOLO," adds Stacey Cook, Executive Director of Project Fit America. "GOLO's steadfast commitment to giving back to the community truly impacts hundreds of children and brings much-needed support to Physical Education in schools."

NEWARK, DE (January 16, 2024) – Judge Dale A. Drozd from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California recently issued a nine-page decision granting GOLO's motion to dismiss a false advertising class action lawsuit filed against the company by Vincenzza Bubak in 2021. 

The dismissal comes early on in its procedural status and reflects GOLO’s consistent view that the lawsuit was without merit.

"We are very pleased with this result and the Court's decision here,” said Chris Lundin, GOLO’s CEO.  “GOLO has always been and remains committed to providing our customers with safe, effective, and sustainable solutions to their health, wellness, and weight loss needs."

“There has been some misleading information online about this case, and the Court’s ruling for GOLO should provide clarity to the record,” added Keith Walter, GOLO’s General Counsel. “This decision also validates GOLO’s position from the outset that this class action lawsuit should have never been filed, and I am glad to see it concluded with the Judge applying recent Ninth Circuit precedent.”  

About GOLO:

GOLO has provided health and wellness solutions since 2013 and has over 4 million customers. Headquartered in Newark, Delaware, GOLO has distribution centers in Wilmington, Delaware, Las Vegas, Nevada, and Dallas, Texas, and employs over 130 people.

GOLO’s flagship products are the GOLO for Life® Plan, a servings-based healthy eating program, and the patented Release® dietary supplement.  The health benefits of GOLO and Release have been confirmed in clinical studies and there are over 100 studies on the safety and efficacy of the ingredients in Release. 

The Release supplement contains seven plant-based ingredients and three minerals.   Key ingredients in Release have been extensively studied and shown to improve metabolic efficiency, help balance key hormones associated with weight, enhance the immune system, increase energy, and reduce stress and mental fatigue, common factors associated with dieting. Release contains no caffeine or stimulants. 

GOLO’s dual action and back-to-basics holistic approach to weight loss and wellness focuses on metabolic health, sustainable behavior and lifestyle change, resulting in steady weight loss. GOLO provides a safe, affordable, and effective total wellness solution. 

GOLO’s approach does not include the use of weight loss drugs which come with numerous potential side effects and significant health risks. GOLO firmly believes that weight loss drugs are ineffective for long-term weight loss and do not address the root cause of weight gain. GOLO encourages and empowers people to embrace healthy lifestyle changes, proper nutrition, and emotional well-being instead of quick-fix drugs or fad diets. By adopting a holistic approach to weight management, GOLO can help individuals achieve lasting results and lead healthier, happier lives. 

In 2023, GOLO donated over $350,000 to US charities, including The Food Bank of Delaware, Special Olympics of Delaware and Nevada, and Ronald McDonald House Charities of Delaware. The company also delivered over 215,000 balanced, nutrient dense GOLO Foods meals to food banks and food pantries in New York, Delaware, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Nevada, and Texas. The company aims to distribute over 1 million meals this year to help address hunger and promote the health benefits of consuming nutrient-dense foods.

NEWARK, DE, (October 10, 2023) – GOLO, the health and wellness solutions company, has been named to Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Customer Service 2024 in the “Nutrition and Weight-loss Program” category. Newsweek’s America’s Best Customer Service 2024 rankings are based on research conducted in 2023 by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The rankings run from September 2023 to September 2024.

"We are incredibly proud and honored to receive this recognition from Newsweek," said Jennifer Brooks, President and Co-founder of GOLO.

“When it comes to achieving a healthier lifestyle, no one does it alone, which is why the role of customer service is so vitally important,” added Brooks.

The 2024 America’s Best Customer Service rankings were identified from the results of an independent survey of more than 30,000 U.S. customers who have either made purchases, used services, or gathered information about products or services in the past three years. In total, over 200,000 evaluations were collected. The survey was conducted on retailers and service providers from 166 categories, providing results for a broad spectrum of customer experiences in traditional retail, online, and service segments. For each category, the most relevant brands were included in the scope of the survey according to reputation, turnover, or market share.

Earlier this year, GOLO's customer-driven TV advertising campaign was also recognized and honored for its industry thought leadership and impact.
