Gold's Gym not only helps others live a healthy lifestyle by encouraging exercise, but helps feed people in need as well. There are nearly 50 million Americans who don't have enough to eat, that's 1 in 7 people, so the DC-area Gold's Gym locations decided to come together and make a difference.
Thirty Gold's Gym locations in DC, MD, VA held a food drive from November 16, 2015- January 1, 2016 and together they collected a whopping 3,489 lbs of food! That's enough food to provide more than 2,900 meals!
Move for Hunger extends a huge thank you to everyone who participated in this event. On behalf of the Move for Hunger Staff, I would like to thank Gold's Gym for taking the initiative and pulling together to organize such a strong event; Interstate Moving & Storage, Bargain Movers, and Paxton Vanlines Inc., an Atlas agent, for their generosity - providing supplies, manpower and transportation; and everyone in the DC area who donated and helped fight hunger!
If you and your gym would like to get involved, contact us so we can help you get started on your fight to end hunger.
