Local CrossFit gym holding fundraiser Saturday

Tonawanda News — CrossFit716 will be participating in a Barbells for Boobs fundraiser at its 84 Sweeney St. facility from 10 a.m. to noon today.

The public is invited to watch gym members work out and purchase paleo diet baked goods to raise money for uninsured and underinsured men and women pay for mammograms. The local organization hopes to raise $5,000, enough to provide more than 60 people with free mammograms.

Donations can also be made online at https://support.barbellsforboobs.org/group-fundraising/crossfit716/

Visitors should enter through the back of the building off Tremont Street, under the Lesniak Chiropractic sign.
