WHAT IS THE ALWAYS FORWARD SCHOLARSHIP INITIATIVE? |
|
We have partnered with the local Non-profit organization the Always Forward Initiative to create a Scholarship program that allows low-income individuals access to the resources and community at CrossFit Elysium.
Regardless of why individuals or families may be in low-income situations, both organizations want to play their part in empowering people to lift themselves out of impoverished circumstances and improve their health.
Since day one we have had a mission to be more than a gym. We want our impact in the community to extend beyond one person’s journey to health and wellness. In addition to improving ourselves, we feel we have a responsibility to improve our community. True communities are made up of many types of people with various backgrounds and experiences. This is an area we feel the need to improve at CFE. The low-income community is one that suffers significantly from the effects of inactivity and lack of exercise. As people who do CrossFit, we know how it changes, elevates, and motivates us in all other areas of life. We believe that what we do in the gym has a direct impact on how we perform and live outside of the gym. Our vision for this scholarship program is to extend that opportunity for self-discipline and self-improvement to those near us that are not able to afford it.
Imagine the difference we could make in an individual’s life by helping them believe they are capable of more than they ever thought possible. Dream with us about what it would look like to do that for 5, 10, 50, or 200 people. Think about how a pursuit of wellness has impacted your own life and consider how we could change the makeup of our entire community by providing them with that same opportunity.
Something to this magnitude is only possible through the help of donations and charitable giving. We believe this community is strong in the numbers of those that are willing to give and help those in need around them. Let’s unite together and build a better, healthier community.
