I’ve hosted and taught over a dozen Zumbathons, so I’m very familiar with those.
My gym also did a spin marathon for Augie’s Quest once.

Have you done other types of fund-raisers that have gone well for your chosen charity? If so, I’d be interested in hearing. Thanks!

Hi Nancy,

we have an organization called ‘Foundation of Hope’ which raises money for research of mental illness. I have taught ‘MELT for Hope’ classes which raised quite a bit of money.

Hi Nancy,

I have no association with this website, but it’s the best resource I’ve come across for fundraising activities (has over 100 of them).

Here’s the link: www.better-fundraising-ideas.com/list-of-fundraising-ideas.html. My favourite one is the “Charity Parachute Jump”. Your gym could organise it for their members and give parachute themed exercise classes leading up to the jump date. It would probably get some free PR (local press would want to write about it).

Om Shanti,

We are currently putting together a “train the trainer” fundraiser, where for a donation, you can purchase one minute segments that you get to tell your personal trainer what exercise to do. Interest is good!
