THE GYM of Armonk Hosts Fundraising Classes for Make-A-Wish
Throughout the month of January THE GYM of Armonk will again be conducting a variety of classes, with the proceeds donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of the Hudson Valley. The goal is to raise enough funds to grant the wish of 7-year old Malaq who wants to “swim with the dolphins.”
The classes will be open to gym members and non-members on a first come, first serve basis. The suggested donation is $25 for each class (cash or check only), and registration is required in advance. Sign-up sheets are located at the Customer Service Desk at THE GYM.
As an added method of fundraising, “Sponsorship Stars” will be available for purchase at THE GYM and will be displayed on premises with the sponsor’s name – $10 for a “Display Star”, and $15 for a “Magnetic Star.”
“We are thrilled to once again be partnering with THE GYM of Armonk!” said Thomas J. Conklin, President and CEO of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of the Hudson Valley. “It’s great to see that an organization dedicated to the heath and well-being of its community is willing to extend the same sentiment to children in the Hudson Valley region with life-threatening conditions. THE GYM’s support in 2012 was overwhelming, and we are so pleased they are participating again in 2013.” Jamie Nicastri, General Manager of THE GYM and Lisa Gagliardi, group fitness director add, “We are proud to be continuing our relationship with Make-A-Wish. As we reflect during the holiday season and new year, we are so glad to be able to support such a worthy cause and continue to touch the lives of many children in need.”
