"What's makes us different is that we have always believed that a business doesn't need to be big to give back," said Joel Pile, managing director of Precision Fitness TT.
Pile echoed the sentiments while he and his team were on site bringing Christmas cheer to Robin Seecharan and his family, who lost their Springvale, Claxton Bay home to fire last week. Pile, along with the sixteen personal fitness instructors who make up PFTT, held a competition among their 400-member clientele with the aim of donating all proceeds to charity.
"I think we have some of the best clients any business could ask for as they rose to the challenge and generously gave to help someone else this Christmas," Pile continued.
With a prize of four months of free personal training for the five people who bought the most chances in their raffle, PFTT clients dug into their pockets and let their money do the talking, raising a total of $25,000, all of which was donated to the less fortunate.
David Warner, director of Fitness Operations at PFTT, also added, "We have been in existence since 2012 and we have made it a point to give back every year. We've worked with the Margaret Kistow Home in Arima for the last two years and this year our plan was to donate to the St Dominic's Home for Children. However, after hearing about the Seecharan family and the Wall family of Second Caledonia, Morvant, who experienced tragedy and lost their homes, we decided that there was enough for everyone to benefit. As we continue to grow, the way we give will grow as well."
Pile further stated, "During the next year we plan to make PFTT a household brand as we go beyond fitness and focus on helping people live their best lives in mind, body and spirit. Our tagline is 'transform your life'; and just like we understand that giving a little can transform someone's life, we want to do the same for our clients and their families"
