Midwest Fitness Partners was a sponsor for the Make-A-Wish Walk at Forest Park in St. Louis, Missouri, on April 13. Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas grants life-changing wishes for kids with critical illnesses.

As a sponsor for the event, Midwest Fitness Partners donated $7,500 to Make-A-Wish. The group also set up a tent at the Make-A-Wish Walk to help promote health and fitness and hand out free items to attendees. The group had five staff members managing the tent. The day was a success as $565,000 was raised at the Make-A-Wish Walk, which was enough to grant 56 wishes!

Midwest Fitness Partners was happy to support an incredible mission and organization, as well as help children and families in need. The event was also a great way for the franchise to share the benefits of a Planet Fitness^® membership with attendees.

“We are deeply committed to supporting children, as they are our future. Contributing to Make-A-Wish is a noble cause that helps children in need, and we are honored and delighted to be a part of it,” said Sam Glassman, CFO of Midwest Fitness Partners.
