Konica Minolta’s Biggest Losers are actually the Biggest Winners with the Biggest Hearts

Season 15 of Konica Minolta’s Biggest Losers went off with great success this year!  The Biggest Loser is a weight lose competition, started by a group of employees a few years ago.  Yes, the goal is to loss the most weight, however it more.  This special group of employees have changed their eating and exercise habits.  These changes have and will help them in the long run.   

 

Normally, the registration fee is used as prize money for the Biggest Losers.  However, this season, the employees decided to donate all of the registration fee, to the Volunteer Center’s All Wrapped Up Holiday Giving Program. They all thought it would be a great idea to help others while helping ourselves.  They donated $425 worth of Target cards which will go to some of the clients being “adopted” this season.

 

Wishing you a Happy and Healthy Holiday Season!
