Please help Don and Joerg out of Crippling Debt

On March 17th of this year, The Working Body, a unique and vibrant fitness and wellness center in Oakland, CA, was forced by the state to stop operating in response to the pandemic. The physical fitness industry in this State has been forever changed and this forced closure has left its visionary founders, Don Lawson and Joerg Chabowski, in dire personal financial straights.

They invested everything to build a business like no other, serving thousands of individuals from diverse backgrounds with diverse needs. They also gave dozens of health care and fitness professionals like us a home to grow our own businesses and flourish in the Bay Area. Now Don and Joerg need your help!

Because they have had to close the Working Body's doors, without revenue, the banks are going after them to repay their business loans immediately.

Our lives have benefited greatly because of the chance they took to manifest their vision. After all they have provided to our Bay Area community over the past 20 years, we don't want them to suffer personally because of the devasting effects of the Covid pandemic.
There are no words that could adequately express our gratitude to Don and Joerg for creating a beautiful, vibrant, and nurturing environment for us and our clients. If you were personally supported by The Working Body, we hope you will return the support by making a donation. If you are hearing about The Working Body for the first time, we hope you will feel inspired to give as well. On behalf of Don and Joerg, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Bambi, Marisa and Leonore❣️
