Blink Fitness Partners with The OUT Foundation for Pride 2024

NEW YORK, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Blink Fitness, the affordable fitness brand known for its commitment to an all-inclusive and inviting environment, is kicking off its annual Pride celebration with a series of efforts to raise dollars and awareness in support of The OUT Foundation. The partnership will advance The OUT Foundation's work in removing the barriers that block LGBTQ+ individuals from access to and participation in fitness, health, and wellness.

Through the entire month of June, Blink will donate $10 for every Green membership sold to The OUT Foundation*. Blink's Green membership includes access to all Blink locations, bring-a-friend-anytime benefits, and unlimited access to the Blink App that delivers daily fitness and wellness content, including thousands of video workouts.

Blink will also offer its annual limited-edition Pride t-shirt, available for purchase at select Blink gym locations. The t-shirt will retail for $25.99 with $2 from each sale donated to The OUT Foundation. Blink's Pride t-shirt is unisex and available in sizes S-XXL.

"Our clear and steadfast purpose centers around being the gym for 'every body,'" said Guy Harkless, president of Blink Fitness. "Inclusive and accessible fitness for all people has been our mission from day one. This Pride month, we are honored to once again support the important work of The OUT Foundation in their outreach and advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community."

Tina Weaver, Executive Director at The OUT Foundation, shares enthusiasm for the collaboration, saying, "Blink Fitness is leading in so many ways within the fitness industry, we are proud to align with our mission of empowering the LGBTQ+ community through health and wellness. Continuing this partnership exemplifies Blink's commitment to advance diversity and inclusivity within the fitness industry."

Last year, Blink donated more than $20,000 to The OUT Foundation during Pride Month. Additionally, Blink employees across the country participated in OUTAIM, The OUT Foundation's training curriculum designed to help health and wellness professionals build a culture inclusive to the LGBTQ+ community.
