Habitat for Humanity is an international, non-governmental, and nonprofit organization, which was founded in 1976. Habitat has been devoted to building "simple, decent, and affordable" housing, a self-described "Christian housing ministry," and has addressed the issues of poverty housing all over the world.
The team from Wodify, together with friends and family members and CrossFit Aspire of Cherry Hill put business aside to help build a home through the Burlington County affiliate of Habitat for Humanity.

The 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom, Moorestown home was being built for a brother and sister currently sharing a 1-bedroom apartment in Maple Shade. The team helped build the new home on 3rd Street in Moorestown in six hours, which was one hour ahead of schedule.
The day’s work included moving roughly 6 tons of dirt around the perimeter of the home, filling in holes and building up the foundation. Fireproof sealant was also applied throughout the interior framework of the home and a hole was dug out of approximately 10 feet in the crawl space to free up the waterline pipe.
The team additionally prepped the house for sheet rocking by cleaning out all the interior debris.

This was Wodify’s second year volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, but its first time joining forces with CrossFit Aspire. Wodify employees not only work out at CrossFit Aspire, but the gym was also the first CrossFit gym nationwide to implement Wodify mobile application to electronically track individual members’ performance, and manage owner operations.
