Healthy Women lead to Healthy
Communities
Healthworks
Community Fitness is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit
organization devoted to serving health and fitness needs of
women
and children in the Boston area. We believe that all women,
regardless of economic status, deserve access to high-quality fitness
opportunities and health support. The organization currently
operates two non-profit fitness centers in Dorchester, run by its own
staff and many volunteers.
With support, Healthworks Community Fitness aims to operate thriving
community fitness centers that provide the highest quality holistic
nutrition, fitness, and well-being services while working directly with
community-based resources in order to expand the scope of care to
patients, resulting in fitter, healthier, happier, and better-educated
neighborhoods.
Help us with our mission, empower others to lead healthier
lives and truly affect change.
