Weeks after announcing a $5 million commitment to Children's Hospital of Wisconsin for enhanced mental health services, Kohl's has pledged an additional $5 million to two other organizations.

The retail company announced Wednesday that it is launching partnerships with Alliance for a Healthier Generation and Boy & Girls Clubs of America.

Kohl's and AHG will initiate a family health and wellness initiative that is aimed at encouraging families to prioritize healthy lifestyles in the home.

BGCA will receive a $3 million gift to provide comprehensive social and emotional development training for staff.

These new partnerships and initiatives are a part of the company's expanded Corporate Social Responsibility platform that is shifting from children's health to holistic family wellness.
