What people are saying about Blue Zones Project
“BZP brings people together and they support additional projects. They stepped in on workdays and participated at 12 sites over the years. We’re so grateful for what BZP does and how they contribute to community and fellowship, and allowing for cultural connections to happen that’s intergenerational.”

“I think Blue Zones has done a great job in the Wahiawa community. The presence on social media really helps people be aware of what’s going on and how easy it is to have a healthy lifestyle. I loved going to the cooking demos, and sometimes it’s something that I like to eat, but never knew how to cook. They show how simple it is!”

“I’ve volunteered with Blue Zones Project from the beginning of the project. When I see the Blue Zones banners, people wearing their blue shirts, or Blue Zones grocery aisle, I’m reminded that I made a commitment to be healthier and many times I have altered my shopping list based on the impact BZP has made in our communities.”
