Equinox Darien Partners with Person-To-Person

This holiday season, Equinox Darien is partnering with Person-to-Person (P2P) to give back. Equinox is asking both members and non-members to donate shelf-stable food at Equinox Darien.  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. This initiative kicked-off on #GivingTuesday, December 3 and runs through Sunday, December 29.

“With a holiday food drive as the first of many social responsibility acts planned by Equinox in the Fairfield community for the New Year,” notes P2P Manager of In-Kind Giving Pate Cage, “we appreciate that Equinox chose Person-to-Person as the beneficiary of this initiative.”

“We are pleased to partner with Person-to-Person and give back to those in need this holiday season,” said Equinox Darien General Manager Jason Fox.
