BODYBAR Pilates, a franchise operator of fitness studios, has initiated a month-long charitable campaign titled 'BODYBAR Does Good.' The initiative is developed in collaboration with the non-profit organization The Worthy Co.
The BODYBAR Does Good campaign involves the sale of a co-branded scented candle at all of BODYBAR Pilates' 68 locations. The proceeds of these items will be directed to The Worthy Co., which focuses on providing job training and employment for individuals who have survived human trafficking and sexual exploitation. The candles are also being produced by women within its program.
To further incentivize participation in the BODYBAR Does Good campaign, BODYBAR Pilates is offering a photoshoot to the outlet that achieves the highest sales volume. This partnership is presented by the company as an alignment of shared values centered on female empowerment.
