Curves is encouraging women to show their philanthropic strength by participating in the 12th annual Curves Food Drive. And, even though donating food to families in need is its own reward, the clubs are offering compelling incentives for both existing and potential members who participate.

Curves is partnering with ACTI-MENU, the Prevention Division of the Montreal Heart Institute and the Canadian Cancer Society, for the sixth annual 5/30 Health and Wellness Challenge. The initiative aims to encourage Quebeckers to commit to achieving or maintaining important health-related goals, including getting active for at least 30 minutes a day a minimum of five times a week.
 

Each Tuesday from March 2 through April 6, participating Curves locations will open their doors so that every woman who has registered for the Challenge can work out for free. The Curves program provides a complete strength training, cardio, and stretching workout in just 30 minutes, making it an ideal choice for women who want to achieve their goal of 30 minutes of daily activity.

Participants who want to make exercise a priority in their lives beyond the Challenge can also take advantage of a deep discount off the enrollment fee when they join Curves in March and April.

Curves locations throughout the world are joining forces for a new initiative called Stronger Together, an international movement to make one million women stronger and healthier. The program will rely heavily on women sharing their success stories and providing confidence and inspiration to others.

Curves founders Diane and Gary Heavin are donating their time, talents and resources to help Haitian earthquake victims.

Gary flew his company jet out of Waco on Wednesday to pick up Whitefield Overseas Evangelical Ministry doctors in Joplin, Mo., and Indianapolis, In. He'll shuttle the doctors into Haiti today and return to Miami to pick up more doctors, medical supplies, food and water. He and his crew will do this trip twice a day for three days. Diane, who flew commercially to meet him in Miami, will accompany him on his initial return trip to Haiti.

Pamela Massey wasn't always one of those “workout women,” although she knew deep down she should be.

But she threw herself into the Curves workout after life threw her a curve ball. She was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, which has a very low survival rate.
 

"I started exercising as I started my first round of chemo." And eventually her doctors noticed something.

A Denver woman who had a massive tumor removed from her body is vowing to work at staying healthy after living through years of embarrassment.

Carolina Sifuentes, 19, weighed more than 550 pounds and her stomach was enormous when she first went to a gym to try to do something about her body.

Sifuentes decided to join Curves, a gym that's exclusively for women, because she says she'd had enough with being vastly overweight. As a student at Metropolitan State College of Denver, some people thought she was pregnant.
 

Just in time for New Year’s resolutions, Cleveland Clinic, Curves, the City of Cleveland and other partners  announced today that they will join forces and combine their resources to launch go!FIT Greater Cleveland, a free, comprehensive public health campaign for Cuyahoga County adult residents.  The campaign is designed to improve the overall health and well-being of the county by breaking down barriers and increasing access to fitness and weight management facilities in the area.

At 6:15 p.m. on Monday evening--the busiest time of the day for many Curves, including the one in Gaborone, Botswana--His Excellency President Lieutenant General Ian Khama caused a traffic jam on the circuit when he delighted members with a surprise visit. Coming straight from a football match and still dressed in his sweats, he sampled a few of the workout machines and inquired about the members' results.
