This will always be added to and changed as new information becomes available. Feel free to take a look below and hopefully one or can be of service 

Affordable Health Care Plans

 Trupo has a solution so that our members can get advice about health insurance. We can help you find what you need easily.

Trupo provides a health insurance quiz that suggests a specific health insurance plan to each member in NY, NJ, and TX (and provides general guidance in other places).  We are sharing this with you, along with the blog post that addresses frequently asked questions about health insurance (such as subsidies). 

You can find the blog post and quiz here:

FIT PRO RELIEF FUND  

We feel that fitness professionals have been the unsung heroes in the community from day one and want to support you in this time of need. So we created the Fit Pro Relief Fund to help fit pros who have been financially devastated due to this difficult situation. View Peter & Kathie's letter to the industry here.

The Fit Pro Relief Fund will be offering grants as soon as possible to fitness professionals who are in severe financial hardship. Because there are limited funds, selections will be made at random for those who meet the prescribed criteria. Approximately 500 applicants who meet the criteria will receive on average $1,000 each to help meet their immediate needs. Awards will be limited to one grant per person

1. Five years as a personal trainer or group-exercise instructor, either part-time or full-time
2. Up-to-date certification as a personal trainer or group-exercise instructor
3. Your income has been severely affected by COVID-19
4. You have not received any form of government or employer-based financial help (i.e. unemployment, severance, etc)
