Hey everyone!

I'm part of an international competition called the CrossFit Open, where athletes compete in 5 weeks of CrossFit workouts. My gym, Nexus Fitness, is hosting an in-house competition as well, where all athletes are put onto competing teams within our facility. 

As part of this competition, we are giving back by raising money for Help One Now. Help One Now empowers families in developing countries through high-capacity local leaders with proven solutions to end extreme poverty.

Their Family Empowerment Program shifts the narrative; it helps keep struggling families together. This program helps families to thrive and ripples outward into the community as families grow their businesses, create jobs and pour into the local economy. Family empowerment is more than just a process or program, it is family preservation and orphan prevention.
