What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees have the option to participate in a Charitable Contribution program. If a franchisee chooses to participate, the contribution is $100 per month. This contribution is made once the Basecamp Fitness studio opens.
This charitable contribution is entirely voluntary, meaning a franchisee is not obligated to participate. The FDD specifies that the contribution is only made "if you choose to contribute," giving franchisees the discretion to decide whether or not to enroll in the program.
Franchisees should consider this voluntary contribution as part of their ongoing operating expenses. While $100 per month may seem small, it's important to factor it into the overall budget, especially when considering other fees and expenses associated with running a Basecamp Fitness franchise. It is important to note that this contribution is separate from other marketing or advertising fees that Basecamp Fitness may require.
