Curves food drive a win-win for all

PreviousNext

Curves for Women is offering area women a chance to get into shape while helping others. Its annual food drive runs until the end of March, and supports the Exeter and Zurich food banks.
Curves waives the $199 start-up fee for new members who bring in a bag of groceries; current members earn Curves cash for each donation. The gym will also offer different draws, prizes, games and activities this month.
Donors should bring non-perishable foods, with baby food and healthy lunch snack items very popular.
“Food banks need the support and this is a good way to be a citizen of the community,” says Curves owner Ann Barteaux. “This club has done really well. We were over 2500 lbs. last year and 3000 lbs. the year before.”
The food drive occurs across North America.
