At Fight Fitness, we believe in the power of community—both within the walls of our gym and beyond. Recently, we had the honor of raising $1,000 for Eva’s Place, an organization whose mission and vision align with the values we hold dear: supporting, uplifting, and empowering youth in need.
About Eva’s Place
Eva’s Place is more than a shelter—it’s a home. It’s a space where Black youth experiencing homelessness can find safety, support, and a sense of belonging. Through a dedicated team of staff, volunteers, funders, and donors, Eva’s Place is building a community that cultivates leadership and social justice solutions.
Mission: Inspiring and valuing youth leadership while addressing the intersections of Black identities, Eva’s Place creates anti-racist solutions to youth homelessness.
Vision: A future where strong and diverse Black youth thrive in communities that provide the respect, equity, and support they need to flourish.
This incredible organization was founded by and for the Black community and continues to lead the charge in combating youth homelessness with dignity and empowerment at its core.
How We Came Together
At Fight Fitness, giving back is part of who we are. Whether it’s building confidence in our members through fitness or supporting causes that make a difference, we strive to create a positive impact.
Through community events, client contributions, and team efforts, we proudly raised $1,000 for Eva’s Place. A special thanks goes out to our client Michelle Caderet-Mak, whose dedication and organizational skills were instrumental in making this fundraiser a success. Michelle’s leadership and commitment to this cause exemplify the spirit of our Fight Fitness family.
Why This Matters
Youth homelessness is a critical issue, and Black youth face unique challenges due to systemic inequities. Eva’s Place provides more than a roof—it offers mentorship, advocacy, and the opportunity for young people to lead and succeed. Every dollar we raised helps Eva’s Place continue its essential work.
Empowerment: Supporting leadership programs that equip youth with skills and confidence.
Safety: Providing safe spaces where youth can heal and grow.
Belonging: Fostering a community where every individual feels seen, valued, and respected.
