Are You Fit to Fly?

To educate and support associates in making positive

changes, we created the Fit to Fly Wawa Wellness

Program in 2010

Associates who are Fit to Fly are energetic and excited about creating good health and wellness for themselves and their families. They’re aiming to play at the top of their game and soar to new heights, not only physically and mentally, but financially, professionally, and socially -- in all aspects of life. When you’re fit to fly, you’re passionate about living the healthiest lifestyle possible, and inspired to lift and guide others to do the same.
