Custom Fit and Bob’s Gym join Pushups for Charity 2013, a 90-Second Pushup Competition, to Benefit Troops Through 501c3 Non-Profit, The Boot Campaign

Custom Fit Personal Training and Bob’s Gym want YOU to join our team for Pushups for Charity 2013—an annual fitness competition hosted by Net Profit Explosion, LLC. Pushups for Charity is a 90 second push up challenge to be held on May 18, 2013. Monies raised through Pushups for Charity will go straight to our military personnel – past and present – who were either physically or emotionally wounded in service.

This is the 4th year that Tony Maslan from Custom Fit has hosted a Pushups for Charity event. “As a Marine veteran, this is an event that is very important to me. So many people have sacrificed so much for us and for our freedoms. This event is a chance for us to give back and help make a difference in the lives of our wounded veterans and their families.”

For the second year in a row Pushups for Charity will benefit the Boot Campaign, a national 501c3 non-profit that is dedicated to showing tangible appreciation of our military, raising awareness of the challenges they face upon return and supporting their transition home.

In 2012, Pushups for Charity raised $300,000 for the Boot Campaign. This year, the goal for Pushups for Charity is to raise $1 million to fund the Boot Campaign’s five (5) military assistance programs—Jobs, Housing, Wellness, Family Support and Urgent Assistance.
