NAAFA was founded in 1969 by William Fabrey in New York as the 'National Association to Aid Fat Americans'. In their early years social activities and letter-writing campaigns were a major part of the organization. As the organization turned more toward political activism, the name was changed during the 1980s. Wikipedia*
