Strong & Proud: Support Brave Space Alliance

We are Connected Fitness, a Latino and Queer-owned group fitness gym in the neighborhood of Little Village. It has always been very important for us to give back to our community, and every year we celebrate Pride with a fitness fundraising event called Strong & Proud. During Strong & Proud, we have a fun all-levels workout and social to help fundraise for a local queer-based non-profit organization.

This year, all funds raised will be donated to Brave Space Alliance. Founded in 2017, Brave Space Alliance (BSA) is dedicated to supporting our community and all those in it, prioritizing the specific needs of Black and brown, trans and LGB+ individuals on the South Side of Chicago. Through a combination of mutual aid, knowledge sharing, and advocacy, they seek to foster a world in which everyone has the opportunity to thrive fully and authentically.

Please help us raise funds for this awesome organization by making a suggested donation of $15. No donation is too big or too small! And please make sure to join us on June 21st at Connected Fitness for the Strong & Proud workout and carne asada.
