Equinox Greenwich Partners with Neighbor to Neighbor

This holiday season, Equinox Greenwich is partnering with Neighbor to Neighbor to give back. To recognize the national movement “giving Tuesday,” Equinox is giving back on a local level.  Equinox is asking both members and non-members to donate shelf-stable food, linens and diapers at Equinox Greenwich.  Non-members who donate items will receive a two-week trial membership, and a three-day pass to give to friends.  All Equinox members who donate will receive a small gift from The Shop. Donations will be accepted from December 3-December 29.

“Neighbor to Neighbor is an instrumental organization in the community and has provided support to residents in need for over 30 years. We are happy to partner with Neighbor to Neighbor this year and support this wonderful organization,” said Equinox Greenwich General Manager Michael Buonocore.

This initiative kicks off one of many social responsibility acts by Equinox in the Fairfield community for the New Year.
