Six instructors and close to 40 clients went spinning recently at “Revolution,” a fitness studio in Santa Monica, to help raise more than $1,565 for St. Joseph Center, which helps homeless and low-income people become self-sufficient.
“We believe that the holiday season is a time for giving to others,” said Stephanie Fargo, owner of Revolution.
“The people here continue to demonstrate their enthusiasm for life and for giving opportunities to the less fortunate,” added Julie DeRose, St. Joseph Center’s Director of Homeless Services, who also spins at Revolution.
St. Joseph Center provides emergency services, childcare, counseling, and training for more than 7,300 homeless and low-income men, women and children each year with 11 programs and services on seven sites in Venice, Santa Monica, and West Los Angeles.
