MIDDLETOWN, Calif. – Jazzercise instructors and customers raised $81,355 for Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area by staging a half-time performance for the Golden State Warriors on March 21.
According to Jazzercise instructor Stephanie Diehl, Make-A-Wish will use the donations to grant 10 magical wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions.
Held at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, the event drew 275 participants.
“I am so proud of everyone who participated in raising funds for such a worthy cause,” said Peggy Waide, district manager, Jazzercise Inc. “This event is always so much fun. It’s special because all the participants have fun performing at the game while doing something worthwhile for the community.”
Over the years, Jazzercise instructors have raised more than $28 million for a wide range of charities through community events including special large-scale workout classes, performances at major sporting events and local benefits.
