Pennies for Pounds

2012 EVENT COMING SOON!

Pennies for Pounds

Pennies for Pounds is an athletic fundraiser that takes place at LifeSport Fitness Center in the Fairmount section of Philadelphia. Dick and Flossie Snyder, proprietors of LifeSport Fitness, started Pennies for Pounds over 20 years ago; since then, they have raised close to $75,000 for UCP.

Participation in this event requires performing a basic, one-repetition bench press exercise with as much weight as possible. Friends, neighbors, relatives and local businesses pledge support by contributing pennies for the pounds lifted.
