Peace out, Fitbit– there’s a new fitness wearable on the market, and it gives kids the power to change the world. Thanks to a new partnership between Target and the US Fund for UNICEF, the new UNICEF Kid Power Bands do just that.

Here’s how it works: The UNICEF Kid Power program revolves around the wearable fitness tracker and its accompanying mobile app, empowering kids to reach various fitness goals and also learn about new cultures. A great way to start 2017, right? These actions earn them points that will “unlock” life-saving therapeutic food packets, which UNICEF then delivers to families with severely malnourished children in developing countries.

Win-win! The one-size-fits-all UNICEF Kid Power band retails for about $39.99 and comes in four colors: blue, orange, and two special Star Wars: Force for Change editions in black and white.

“With UNICEF Kid Power, kids and families can move and have fun, all while saving the lives of children around the world. I’m raising my daughter to be strong, healthy and giving. As a mom, the fact that UNICEF’s lifesaving work is powered by kids is really exciting. Every child deserves a healthy start at life, no matter where they live and Kid Power is helping to make that possible,” says Grammy-award winner and UNICEF Kid Power spokesperson, P!nk.
