Orangetheory Offering Public Class to Help Rockford Family with Child’s Funeral Costs

Orangetheory is usually only open to members, but tomorrow they will hold a class for the entire Rockford community to support a family in need.

An awful accident occurred recently while resulted in the death of Rodrigo Ruiz, a teenager who was preparing to start his final year at South Beloit High School.

One of Rodrigo's teachers has set up a GoFundMe account to help his family pay for his funeral costs.

The GoFundMe has already raised over $5,700 and it hoping to reach a goal of $10,000.

And our OrangeTheory location in Rockford is hoping to make a big dent with that cost tomorrow with their first 90 minute Charity Class.

The class is open to the public and is tomorrow, Saturday June 23 at 10:45 a.m.

While the class is open to the public, you do still need to register by calling (815) 414-9900, or by stopping at the gym today.

The class is $25 per person which goes directly to the GoFundMe page. One hundred percent of the money will help Rodrigo's family.

If you're not interested in the workout, you can of course also just donate straight to the GoFundMe page.
