HIIT X Fitness is bringing back its annual charity fitness event.

Join us Saturday, Feb. 25 for a fun-filled, special workout. $35/person to participate. 100% of funds will be donated to our partner charity NorCal Bully Breed Rescue. All members and non-members are welcome! Lovable, adoptable dogs will be present at this event. If you are interested in adoption, a volunteer can explain the application process. Enjoy light snacks and beverages will be served.

Our goal is to raise $3,000, which is the average amount needed to care for a surrendered or rescued dog. Typically, the dog will need 1-2 months of boarding before its’ adopted, which includes medical care, getting up-to-date with vaccines, food, treats, toys, spay and neuter surgery and the list goes on…and so does the expense. Please consider donating to help one of our loving rescue dogs find its forever home.

If you can’t attend, we will be accepting donations on behalf of NorCal Bully Breed Rescue all month. Please consider donating today. https://bit.ly/NCBBRdonate
