Charity Spin Fundraiser to benefit local children in need.

  • Join us as Lift Gym hosts a Spin Fundraiser to benefit Blessings in a Backpack.
  • Music, raffles, refreshments, a great workout, and a whole lot of fun! 
  • 100% of your donation goes to local elementary school children in need.
 Every Friday for 38 weeks of the school year children who qualify for Federal Free lunch and who are at risk of having little or no food on the weekends receive supplemental nourishment to take home from school in their backpacks. This program is run by a community minded WHB high school senior. It currently feeds 110 children and costs roughly 9,500 dollars a year to run. As a community we can help to keep this program alive. BBP is a legitimate 501C3 non-profit organization.
  • To participate, please sign up in advance at Lift Gym. Classes will be held at 8, 9, and 10 am, outside weather permitting. The cost of a 45 minute class is a $20.00 donation. Cash or check in advance at the time of sign up please. 
  • There are other ways to help if you can't attend the event. For more info or questions, please email us at foodforthought631@gmail.com. Lift Gym (631)288-8990.
