"Savour the Moment" presents #SweatWithVets

#SWEATWITHVETS

Through the power of fitness, health, service, and community, we are joining forces to bring awareness to the issue of veteran suicide and mental health.  22 veterans commit suicide every day in the United States, and that number is up 30% in 2020. #SweatWithVets,  presented by Savour the Moment Org, in collaboration with Assault Fitness and TheraBody, is a 2-part social contest and digital fundraiser.  

All proceeds benefit the FitOps Foundation.  

THE CONTEST

#SWEATWITHVETS is a 2 part social contest:  1 part fitness challenge; 1 part raffle.  

You have the option to participate in either the Fitness Challenge or the Raffle (or both).   If you do not want to participate in the challenge or the raffle, but you still want to contribute, click the link below!

We will choose 2 winners:

• FITNESS CHALLENGE:  1 winner will be the #SWEATWITHVETS Fitness Challenge winner.  Whoever submits the most impressive video performing one of the corresponding exercises (see below), decided by a panel of FitOps veterans, wins the grand prize:   An ASSAULT BIKE and a TheraGun Pro!

• RAFFLE WINNER:  1 winner will be chosen at random (HINT:  You collect more raffle entries by completing more social actions.  The more entries you have increases your chance of winning.) The Raffle Winner will win a TheraGun Mini!

The winners will be announced on Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11th on Instagram by a representative from FitOps.

November 11th is of course Veteran's Day and I couldn’t be more excited to announce this year’s partnership with the FitOps Foundation ( https://fitops.org ). I have been fortunate enough to spend time with the members of this incredible organization and learn about the amazing things that they’re doing. It’s an honor to help support their mission to inspire, educate, and empower veterans through fitness and leadership training. 

In 2005, I founded Savour The Moment (www.savourthemoment.org) with the simple mission to bring people together, share new experiences, all while giving back to a community in need of support. In our fast-paced day to day lives, it’s easy to overlook the importance of simple pleasures like laughter, genuine conversations, and connecting with others. Throughout the years, I have been very fortunate to have shared some truly inspiring moments with many of you, and for that I am forever grateful. It has also been a privilege to partner with incredible organizations and raise awareness & funding to their cause.
