Xponential Fitness Brands Raise Funds for Cancer Research
The boutique fitness and wellness franchisor is collaborating with the American Cancer Society this June, offering donation-based classes and co-branded retail among other initiatives
Xponential Fitness is partnering with the American Cancer Society (ACS) for National Cancer Survivors Month this June. Throughout the month, the boutique fitness and wellness franchisor’s brands (Club Pilates, Pure Barre, StretchLab, CycleBar, YogaSix, Rumble Boxing, BFT and AKT) will offer donation-based classes and co-branded retail.
Proceeds will go towards research, treatment and resources for cancer patients.
Xponential’s brands will also raise awareness for the ACS through social media channels and blog content as they spotlight cancer patients and survivors, and provide education this month.
“Fighting cancer is an incredibly important cause to the Xponential family,” Xponential Fitness president Sarah Luna said. “Thousands of our members and studio teams are impacted by this awful disease every year, and by combining efforts with a great organization like the American Cancer Society, we can make a positive difference in these people’s lives.”
