Burpees4Babes
Join us for a memorable morning of fun, fitness and feel-good vibes at our sixth annual Burpees4Babes in support of Edward-Elmhurst Hospital Pediatric Unit and Advocate Children's Hospital.
OUR IMPACT:
In just 2023 and 2024, we donated $20,000 worth of gifts, supported two hospitals, had 80+ moms in attendance and handed out over 75 raffle prizes from local businesses and community.
Join us in making 2025 our biggest and best year yet!
- WHEN: Saturday, December 13
- TIME: Doors open at 8:30am; Workout begins at 9:00am
- WHERE: Bethany Lutheran Church and School, Naperville
- WHAT: Workout with a cause complete with raffle prizes from local businesses, swag bags, festive music, holiday attire, party favors, breakfast and coffee, a photo booth, lots of laughs, a few burpees and a BIG gift drive!
- COST: Free with the donation of one unwrapped gift. Additional raffles can be earned with each additional donation. The more gifts = the more chances to win! You are also able to bring cash for raffle tickets which will go toward the purchase of gifts.
Please note for clients: No class packs or Lite plans will be charged for this event. Therefore, we ask that you enroll to help us gauge breakfast, coffee, and party favor totals.

RAFFLES AND FUN: Stick around post workout as we announce raffles and enjoy some coffee and breakfast treats.
OUR MISSION: Burpees4Babes was started six years ago by owner of FIT4MOM Naperville, Lauren Pedecone, as a way to support other moms and families in the community during the holidays. It has grown tremendously over the course of the last few years thanks to all the support from the women and families of F4M Naperville.
Why We Give
The Child Life Department provides toys and gifts to pediatric patients to help make hospital stays a little brighter. Because many toys must now go home with patients, supplies are running low — and all donations directly help replenish the playrooms and gift supplies for children in care.
