Why Community

03/12/2024

Giving Tuesday is today! Support the physical and mental health of our community at https://whycommunity.org/

Your $30 donation to Why Community allows us to offer a complimentary registration to an individual from an at-risk group who could benefit from training for and crossing the finish line. Our athletes know best how impactful exercise and movement is to physical and mental health. Our ability to positively impact our community is because of generous donors like you!

Every contribution helps!

I am teaching a Yoga class TONIGHT Friday night at 5:30pm and a Dance class (think Zumba) on Saturday TOMORROW at 11:00am as fundraisers for Pink Lemonade Project. I know we all know someone who has been impacted by Breast Cancer so this is a fun way to make a difference and 100% of the donations go to PLP to help local woman!
