Why should you pledge?
Few words can accurately describe the sacrifices our service members and their families make every day. The stress of war and long periods of separation from family and friends tremendously impact their lives in ways most of us cannot comprehend.
Through Joining Forces, you now have a rare opportunity to give back to our nation’s men and women in uniform and their families by offering personal training, small group training or group fitness sessions by the hour. We encourage you to support this initiative with as many session hours as you would like – no number is too high.
Help us reach our goal of 1,000,000 hours
Our goal is to pledge 1 million fitness training service hours over the next year to enrich the quality of life of our service members and their families, and expand their access to fitness resources and programs. We are confident that with your help we can meet this overarching objective!
We have completed 14% of our goal of 1,000,000 hours!
