Gym
We have all seen the commercials for fitness centers. Young fit people are hard at work shedding weight and improving their physical health. It is an image that convinces many people to join a gym and get in shape, but not everyone.
A gym can be an intimidating place to tackle the difficult task of being healthy. Whether it is because a person doesn’t have the right workout gear, or feels culturally out of place, many people forgo the opportunity to embrace health a gym can offer.
That is why Jubilee offers fitness classes in familiar environments for low-income residents in our community. Churches and schools are often the cultural and social hub of life for families in the neighborhoods surrounding Jubilee sites. Because of this, Jubilee has had amazing success offering exercise opportunities to a population that would not be comfortable going to a commercial fitness center.
For a donation of $1, anyone can join a Jubilee class and start on the road to good health.
