Penny Rides

12 Labours CrossFit is excited to present Penny Rides, a fundraising initiative where both districts will raise money for a local non-profit organization during a 3 week period. We will announce our non-profit organization soon! Each district will have a bucket for collecting loose coins, but dollar bills and checks may also be accepted.

At the end of the 3 week collection period, the donations will be tallied the week after and the total amount of money raised will become the penalty for the opposing district. For every 5 cents raised, one calorie will need to be performed on the Assault Bike (i.e. $500 = 10,000 calories).

Members will come together on Saturday, March 13th during normal class times to accumulate max calories in 30 minute slots to contribute to their team’s total calories. Coaches from the home district will be responsible for completing any Assault Bike calories not completed on the designated event date.

But wait…there’s more!

The district that holds the the highest average cals within 30 minutes will be deemed the winner. Athletes from the winning district will have a chance to win a FREE Assault Air Bike through a random raffle drawing. Members must participate on the event date to be eligible for the raffle drawing.

12 Labours CrossFit will be partnering up with Back on My Feet (@backonmyfeet) Baltimore for our upcoming fundraising initiative. Donations raised for Penny Rides will support a national organization in 13 major cities across the US working to combat homelessness through running, community support and essential employment and housing resources. To date, over 5,500 individuals in the program have been supported from homelessness to independence.

12 Labours CrossFit will positively impact a group of individuals to help with educational/professional certificate costs in addition to security deposits for future housing. Members in the BoMF program commit to running at least 3x/week at 5:45am for an entire month prior to gaining access for the Next Steps program. 

The Workforce Development training begins: each member attends financial literacy classes and job skills training provided through partnerships with corporate partners, better preparing them for the jobs and lives ahead of them.
