 ur members\, so the food drive is a natural extension of that commitment
  to the whole community\," said a Curves of Belleview owner Veronica How

  to make ends meet.&nbsp\; Our food drive gives our members a way to rea
 ch out and support their neighbors."\nWith a theme of "Good for your bod
 y and your soul\," this year&rsquo\;s drive encourages Curves members to
  feeldoubly good about themselves as they make time to exercise for good
  health and ake time to help others in the community with a donation of 
 nutritious food. Local Curves clubs may also qualify to win cash prizes 
 for their local food banks. Curves International will award cash prizes 
 to the clubs that collect the most food\, the clubs that show the greate
 st increase in donations over the 2011 food drive\, and to two additiona
 l clubs randomly selected from all the clubs who enter the contest.\n"We
  would love to see all of our clubs top their donation levels from last 
 year\," said Curves founder Diane Heavin. "But the main goal of our annu

 of local food pantries across the country.&nbsp\; We also hope that new 
 members will take this opportunity to give back to their local communiti
 es as they join our Curves community."\nFor more information about Curve
