Quinlan Care Finance with host Bob Quinlan
Guest Tania Lopez spearheads a new project "Coqui the Chef Bodega Adventures."
Coqui the Chef Bodega Adventures is funded by the American Heart Association New York City Community Impact Grant and Citizens Committee of New York City-New Yorkers for Better Neighborhoods Grant.
Coqui the Chef Bodega Adventures -- The program conducts cooking demonstrations and nutrition workshops at local bodegas and recreational centers throughout the South Bronx, in an effort to help combat rising rates of youth obesity in those neighborhoods.
Guest, Tania Lopez conceived the fun-loving mascot she named Coqui the Chef in an effort to reverse the growing trend of childhood obesity and diabetes. Coqui the Chef has since evolved from a cartoon drawing to a fun-loving mascot who has captured the hearts of thousands via a website, social media, food demonstrations across the tri-state area, the NY Daily News, and spotlights on local television networks.
Tania Lopez is currently pursuing a degree in dietetics and nutrition science at Bronx Community College. She also operates a social media branding business. For more information visit CoquiTheChef.com
