JMBCC Receives Donation from Legends Strength & Fitness Warehouse

Posted: 10/26/2016

Legends Strength & Fitness Warehouse generously donated $4,476 to The Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center, equaling 100 percent of the proceeds from their October 1 fitness event, Barbells and Boobs 2016.

“We are one small gym from Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, but together we make ONE BIG DIFFERENCE!” said event organizer Ashley Archangelo Gray.

Participant Deanna Mennett commented, “The energy in that gym was amazing! But at the end of the day it wasn't about who came in what place or what time you had, it was about being there and giving it all you had for those who are fighting and have fought the battle of breast cancer. They are the strong ones...we are just people at a gym trying to raise money to help fight this battle. Legends isn't just a gym...we are family.”

Special thanks to Ashley Archangelo Gray and Logan Gray for the hard work and dedication they give to the members of the gym and the community and for making this fundraiser a success for the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center.
