Dollars for Dumbbells Challenge

Weightlifting Event to Raise Money for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank.

 

On September 17th 2011, Absolute Fitness in East Greenwich will be holding a “Dollars for Dumbbells Challenge” that will donate 100% of the proceeds raised to The Rhode Island Community Food Bank. 

 

For every ten cents provided by sponsors, members of the gym will lift one pound of weight.  The gym’s goal is to generate $5,000.00 for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank which means that at least 50,000 pounds will be weight lifted on September 17th!

 

Currently, Absolute Fitness is seeking sponsors to help reach the dollar goal.  All sponsors will receive a t-shirt commemorating the event.  Donations are fully tax deductible.

 

Weight lifters who are not members of Absolute Fitness are also welcome to participate, please call 401-884-0330 to learn how to join in the effort.
