Madeira Fitness Friends and Associação Ajuda a Alimentar Cães

The goal of this initiative is to raise money to help our furry friends. Since we’re into fitness, to make things more interesting we’re adding a little challenge: try to do as many burpees as possible in 5 minutes, share your score on social media and donate. The money raised will be used by this non-profit org to save more animals. We’re doing this during the whole month of August and we hope to raise at least 1000 euros and 1000 burpees. The more people we involve, the more money we’ll raise and the more burpees we’ll do. So please, don’t forget to nominate people, 5 minutes is all it takes to get a little sweat and help a little friend.

Associação Ajuda  a Alimentar Cães Story:

Around 2003, a 14-year-old girl, Mariana Nóbrega, felt misery for the stray animals and therefore took them into her parents’ house. One thing lead to the next where a dog was followed by another, and later on another, until later, around 2013,  she was  struggling to feed more than a dozen dogs, she created a page on Facebook called "Help to Feed Dogs", with the sole aim, at that time, of obtaining food for the dogs she had collected - hence the name. To learn more about their story, goals and achievements, check their website:                                                   https://www.facebook.com/ajudaaalimentarcaes/ 

 

Madeira Fitness Friends Story:

Like the name says, we’re a group of friends that are into fitness. But more than just workouts and cool t-shirts, we are a strong community. Besides workouts, we organize all kinds of activities to keep everyone motivated, from canyoning to boat trips to levada walks. Our movement started with the pandemic as gyms closed down and we decided to bring fitness outside. We noticed people came for a sweat and stayed for the community. The group grew through word of mouth and we couldn’t be happier. Every Saturday morning you can find us near the cable car. Your current fitness level is not important, we all start somewhere. You too can join us next time!
