Join Anytime Fitness in Carson City This Month and Help Feed Hungry Children Right Here in Our Own Community
CARSON CITY, NV – January 7, 2011 – Over twelve million children go hungry in America every day, thousands right here in the State of Nevada. In an effort to contribute to feeding the hungry children in our community, Anytime Fitness of Carson City will donate $10 for each new membership this month to Food for Thought, a local non-profit organization that provides weekend meals to over 800 children in our community. Many of our children only receive the food they need during the school week. The Food for Thought program provides meals for the child throughout the weekend, so they can arrive back at school on Monday morning ready to learn.
According to Rebecca Rund, founder and executive director of Food for Thought, “As you might imagine feeding hundreds of children each week is a monumental undertaking considering each month we typically provide a total of 15,000 meals!” Rund continued, “We are extremely grateful for our community partners and excited to be teaming up with Anytime Fitness for this win-win opportunity that will benefit so many local residents.”
