Charlotte - One of our Talent Fitness Students |
"Our family is so grateful to Discover Fitness for giving Charlotte the ability to continue to train and compete in the sport she so dearly loves in spite of extreme financial difficulties. Our challenges began in late August of 2017 when Hurricane Harvey severely damaged our home. The extensive damage caused our family of 6 to have to move out of our home, and thus began over 2.5 years of extreme and unexpected whole home renovation and repair costs, temporary rental housing, and storage facility fees. We were getting close to finishing our home repairs and being able to move back into our home in the Spring of 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic began, which caused additional challenges and delays for our home repair. Then, a month before we were scheduled to move home, our family was shocked to suddenly find ourselves without an income. All of the hope and excitement of being able to finally move back to our home was now clouded by financial uncertainty and doubt.
It was at this point that we were no longer sure we could afford to keep Charlotte in the sport of gymnastics. This was devastating to us because gymnastics had been a part of her life for many years, and she had so many dreams and goals that had yet to be accomplished. Charlotte, our youngest daughter, has future goals in the sport that could be in jeopardy without continued training. In addition, Gymnastics has been a bright spot for our family during several years of distress, and it has been so good for Charlotte! Gymnastics has taught her perseverance, enhanced her strong work ethic, and given her confidence and poise under pressure. These are skills that will serve her well beyond her years in this sport.
We are so thankful that our gym, Rise at the Warehouse, told us about the Discover Fitness Program at a time when we were starting to lose hope. Thank you so much for supporting this wonderful organization and helping families like mine who are struggling to help their children fulfill their hopes and dreams."
