“MEN ANPIL, CHAY PA LOU”
(Many hands make the load lighter.)
On Sunday, July 19th, we're putting that proverb to work.
Chay Pa Lou — a wellness fundraiser at @lululemon Newbury, in partnership with @thehaitiancroissantfoundation. Therlande is one half of SIDE and lululemon Newbury's ambassador, and this store has always shown up for the mission-driven works we’ve been up to. So when THC came to us, it was never a question. It was a matter of how far we could take it.
The goal is simple. Send 30 kids in Ferrier, Haiti to school — free — for the 2026–27 year. One year of schooling is $250 per child.
We're filling 30 lululemon backpacks with $250 each to get there.
Your ticket goes directly to that goal, and includes:
An hour pilates class hosted by @iamchekara
Haitian bites from @mangomanswerv
A matcha & @saveurslakay kremas bar
A workout tank top from lululemon
Can't make a class? Pull up 2–5PM at lululemon on Newbury with sounds by @knszwrth for the community gathering.
Chay pa lou. Not when we carry it together.
