Chuze Fitness Members Donate $12,000 To Disaster Relief Fund

Chuze Fitness raised $12,000 and are sending our donation to the American Red Cross: Hurricane Disaster Relief Fund thanks to the help of their members.

Published: 9/25/17

On August 25, 2017 one of the nation’s most damaging natural disasters in US History occurred. Hurricane Harvey affected more than 13 million people and flooded one third of Houston. With the estimated damages costing $180 billion, we knew we had to do something.

Since then, the world has been devastated with multiple natural disasters.

That’s why our team set up a fundraiser along with the Chuze Family to donate 15% of all of our retail sales from September 1 through September, 15 2017. We are happy to announce that our family raised $12,000 and are sending our donation to the American Red Cross: Hurricane Disaster Relief Fund.

Disaster Relief Fund

The Hurricane Disaster Relief Fund promises to provide assistance to households spreading across over 39 counties that were severely impacted by the hurricane. The first phase of this effort provided $45 million to over 100,000 families who were in desperate need of help.
