Natural disasters strengthen our sense of community...I have received several different messages from local health organizations for ways to help the situation in Haiti.
Here's a list of ways to contribute through your local fitness centers:

"Clothing, hygiene products (men and women), canned foods, etc... will all be collected at Triomph this Saturday between 12-5p.m. Of course items can be brought in starting immediately, and we will continue to gather products well after Saturday."
