Stories of Kindness from Around the World

More than a Place to Work Out

I belong to a small gym owned by a husband and wife team. The gym fosters such a strong sense of community, you feel like you're part of a family. A newer member's (we'll call him John Doe) apartment building burned down and he lost almost everything.

One fellow member who barely knew John Doe immediately decided to start a small fund-raiser for John and told all the other members about it. They all came to the gym one day and personally presented their donations to John.

I couldn't be prouder to be a part of such a community!  Not only are they amazing athletes, they are also amazing human beings!
