Greetings!

Your dedication to help your congregation be better stewards is so important. To help them be better stewards of their bodies, we hope you will consider chartering a TOPS chapter in your church.

Unlike other for-profit weight-loss companies, TOPS is nonprofit and charges just $32 USD/$48 CAD per person for yearly dues. Each group also sets a very small local weekly dues (usually about $1 per member) to cover use of meeting space, the costs of awards, and incidental supplies. TOPS gives each new chapter a Starter Kit of programs and educational materials at no additional charge and provides ongoing support. Members also receive our TOPS News magazine and have access to many free tools on our website, .

For over sixty years, TOPS has helped millions of people Take Off Pounds Sensibly and keep them off with our unique system of peer support and recognition. TOPS chapters meet weekly and are facilitated by volunteer officers elected from within the group. In addition to an easy-to-follow outline for a year of meetings, Leaders receive ideas for fun activities to address issues related to nutrition, realistic goal-setting, physical activity, and behavior modification. This, combined with weekly weigh-ins and encouragement from others, helps people develop the knowledge, patience, and self-esteem they need to make permanent, healthy lifestyle changes.

A recent university study published in Obesity, the official journal of The Obesity Society, shows TOPS is just as effective as the for-profit weight loss groups that are so expensive.

I look forward to your call and to discussing with you how TOPS can help your congregation and surrounding community to live fuller, healthy lives.

Best regards,
