Fitness Force!

Fitness Force is a new program aimed at helping cancer survivors meet their own individual fitness goals through accessibility and accountability. We will host monthly group workouts as well as monthly group runs, but will also encourage informal meet ups for exercise and accountability. The program kicks off in February and we are looking for survivors and supporters (volunteer workout buddies!) who want to be involved. Please email Katherine@boonproject.org for more information!

We're grateful to continue to be able to provide young adults fighting cancer with the opportunity for financial assistance.
