July 6th is the CrossFit for Hope workout. This is designed for a fundraiser to raise money for catastrophic childrens’ Illnesses. CrossFit Bartlett will be participating in the effort. Many of you don’t know this, but we have a member who’s child is currently undergoing treatments at St. Jude. This fundraiser has directly contributed to St. Jude in the past. Every little bit helps and you have the opportunity to positively affect one of our own. Here is more information taken directly off of their website:
‘When an athlete begins a CrossFit workout, they know when it will end. Kids diagnosed with a catastrophic illness, like cancer, don’t know when it will be over. They don’t know if they’ll win or lose. They don’t know how many rounds they face, or even what they’ll look like afterward.
CrossFit, Inc. is driving hard to find cures for catastrophic childrens’ illnesses. Through the efforts of our affiliates and our athletes,the CrossFit community can be a game-changer in the fight against children’s cancer and other illnesses. Our ability to make change is infinite. Action is our responsibility.
Every cent that we raise will be used to fight catastrophic children’s illnesses. CrossFit, Inc. covers all administrative and clerical costs in this battle, which leverages your donation to its maximal effect. In this way, we?re more efficient, and we can deliver aid with high intensity and no waste. We can behave like CrossFit athletes even in our generosity.
This is ?us,? a movement comprised of the caring and capable, and not a faceless foundation. This is CrossFit, and this is OUR fight.
Through collaborative competition, CrossFit athletes will raise money in our Hope for Cures workout. Fundraisers will be tracked on our worldwide leaderboard; our work will be tracked in the extra days survived by sick kids. Objective, measurable, and motivating.’
You or may or may not know this but one of our member’s daughter is being treated at St. Jude, and St. Jude is in our backyard, so let’s give this hits close to home!
