WORKSHOPS
  

Pilates4Men, September 11, 2-3pm (with social event afterwards)
Our Pilates4Babes was so much fun in the summer, but there was only one man in attendance! We've decided to call the men out for their own class. Come have fun, work out and support a charity, all at the same time! We'll also have some great raffle prizes available - including tickets to the Leaf/Senators Fans First game on September 21.
So please join us as we come together to raise funds for the Nzirambi Orphans Talent Development Centre in Kasese, Uganda. There are 77 children at the orphanage, most of whom are there because their mothers died in childbirth. Help us on the path to fulfilling the dream of sending them all to school, including post-secondary education or training. With the proceeds we hope to be able to raise enough money - $700 - to send one child to school for a year.
Class size will be small, so please let us know asap if you want to sign up.
The facebook page of the Nzirambi Orphans Talent Development Centre can be found here. You'll need to sign in to facebook to see the page.
Or read the blog of Karen Snider, one of the fundraisers for the Orphanage, who recently travelled to Karese and spent time with the children. Her blog is here.
