Sidekicks Family Martial Arts Donates To Vitality Respite Care
Sidekicks Family Martial Arts is proud to announce the donation of 140 boxes of brownie mix to the Vitality Respite Center at St. Andrew’s Methodist Church in Brandon, continuing its mission of developing leaders who make a positive impact both on and off the mat.
Students and families from Sidekicks’ FishHawk Evening Martial Arts Campus, FishHawk After School Program and Big Bend/Riverview After School Program came together to collect brownie mix for the Vitality Respite Center, which serves individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and other forms of memory loss.
The collection drive is part of Sidekicks’ ongoing commitment to teaching students that earning a black belt is about much more than developing martial arts skills. It is about developing the character, compassion and leadership needed to make a difference in the lives of others.
