you ARE a valuable partner TO YOUR COMMUNITY
In addition to the amenities offered within your building’s walls, you also provide programs and services that increase community health, wellness and fitness. This is one of the many reasons Life Fitness is grateful to partner with YMCAs nationwide. We’ve witnessed the amazing contributions you make every day.
We want to help YMCAs continue to improve the health, wellness and fitness of their communities by supporting their future initiatives with the 2024 Life Fitness Community Impact Award.
