CFSB and Whole Foods are partnering up for the Whole Planet Foundation

What is the Whole Planet Foundation?

The Whole Planet Foundation works to end poverty by providing microcredit loans in the communities where Whole Foods products are sourced. The foundation’s focus is on women in the developing world where a small loan can help an entrepreneur build a home-based business that creates an opportunity for stability and prosperity for her family.

When you donate to Whole Planet Foundation, 100% of your contribution goes directly to microlending programs dedicated to alleviating poverty worldwide.

In support of the mission to end poverty and help entrepreneurs all over the world, CrossFit South Bend will be out at Whole Foods Market in Mishawaka on Friday, Oct. 17th. Your donations will keep us working out from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. while making it possible to end poverty and put more people to work in other parts of the world.

Come on out for a good time and turn the tables on your coaches (and a few notable CFSB athletes) by telling them what their workout will be for a change.
