A Message from Hope for Haiti
CFSBK! Speaking on behalf of my colleagues at Hope for Haiti- we are stunned! We can’t say thank you enough to the CrossFit South Brooklyn team for their incredible fundraising efforts at Fight Gone Bad. It truly enables us to do the work in Haiti.
We wanted to share a recent photo from our Haitian staff, they have been distributing backpacks to students, filled with supplies. This is the type of impact you are all supporting! Thank you!!
