From October 11 through 17, Life Time held its first-ever Community Week, GET TOGETHER. GIVE TOGETHER. It was a week for Life Time members and team members to come together and support their local communities.
Community is already at the heart of Life Time. Every day, our clubs bring people together to move, connect, and build relationships. It is important to us that our members and team members find ways to make a difference in the communities where we all live, work, and play.
GET TOGETHER. GIVE TOGETHER. gave us a dedicated week to celebrate that spirit and amplify the good we can do together. Across Life Time, each club created its own opportunities to give back through service, movement, and community activities, including our new signature class, Unite the Night.
The results were incredible:
175 clubs hosted Unite the Night
9000+ members participated
50 clubs participated in volunteer opportunities throughout their local communities
540+ hours spent giving back to our communities
220+ Team Members volunteered
This impact is a reminder that giving back isn't just something we do at Life Time. It's part of who we are.
Local causes, local hands
Across the country, Team Members built bikes for kindergarten students, packed meals for children facing hunger, supported food banks, collected winter coats and shoes, cleaned parks and trails, partnered with animal shelters, volunteered with assisted living communities, and supported organizations creating healthier, stronger communities.

Some of the week’s most inspiring work happened right in individual communities. Here are a few highlights from clubs across the country:
