Oxfam Charitable Activities

Filed under: Personal Trainer Toronto — Joanne @ 12:54 pm

Personal Trainer Toronto and Bamboo Kung Fu School are committed to giving back to the community. For that reason, founder Kin Sze has decided to participate in Oxfam Trailwalker, a charitable event that is deemed as “the world’s greatest and toughest team challenge” (yikes!) Kin has created a team consisting of himself and 3 of his clients.

So what will they be doing? Well, to support the cause and as a tribute to their fitness levels, the team will be hiking 100km on a portion of the Ganaraska Trail System, located between Port Hope and the Collingwood region. Every member of the 4 member-team must start, stick, and finish together, completing the 100km within 48 hours – which means that it really is a group effort. The fundraising challenge takes place from July 23rd to July 25th, 2010, and Kin’s team must raise a minimum of $2500 by August 31, 2010.

If you don’t already know what Oxfam is, they help improve the living conditions of areas stricken by poverty and injustice.

Interested? Want to make a pledge? You can view more information about the fundraising challenge or call Kin at 416-412-3930. We’re still way off target because we’ve just joined, but we’re sure we’ll make it with your help!

    PS. Over the next few months we’ll be holding some fitness and fundraising challenges between teams on Facebook if you’re interested in some friendly rivalry.

  2. Sophie,

    We have 2 teams already registered and the names are
    Bamboo Kung Fu 2. Not exactly sure what the other team call themselves, I think it’s Team Bamboo Kung Fu.

    Thanks,
