Six celebrated Canadian coaches and trainers will come together for a virtual workout event and fundraiser on Saturday, December 12th at 12pm EST which celebrates the recent launch of the One Community Shoe, a sleek slip-on canvas design devised by George Sully – also the co-founder of the fashion brands Sully Wong and House of Hayla – and Instagram fitness community, City Shred.
The One Community shoe launch is part of the inspiring ‘Walk a Day in My Shoes’ campaign, and 100 per cent of net proceeds from sales go to the Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada. “I believe kids need an equal chance, and if given the tools, there is no limit,” Cheryl Willberg, Founder of City Shred, said in a press release. “We felt working with Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada was the perfect marriage in being able to highlight their programming in support of Black, Indigenous, and people of colour (BIPOC). Helping the next generation resonated with the City Shred team.”
In addition to the philanthropic footwear, the initiative encourages you to sweat it out with host Kevin Yeboah, Rolli Adenmosun, Raia ‘Coach’ Carey, Jay Jean Paul, Skylar Helm, CY Iwanegbe, and Jahmeek Taylor on the 12th during a Zoom-based fitness fundraiser.
