Remarkably, Lululemon helped raise another $5,000 in less than four hours on a rainy day. On Friday evening, the total raised reached to nearly $13,000 of the $20,000 dollar goal.Owner Lisa Thomure of Core MVMT said it's been a collaborative effort, a team effort with so many people coming out to show their support. Thomure also said that when her gym flooded in January last year because of a plumbing emergency, the owners of MX3 didn't hesitate to help.
