We’re taking on Sweat with Pride this June to raise money for Rainbow communities 💦🌈
Matt and Jo have done Sweat with Pride several times, and this year with all the extra negativity and politicising of things that shouldn't be used for political scaremongering, we couldn't wait to step up.
And we've brought Dan onboard, too.
Our schools, workplaces, and doctors’ offices are still not safe places for many Rainbow New Zealanders and it’s putting lives at risk.
More than half our rainbow whānau have experienced mental illness. One in five of our rainbow rangatahi (youth) have attempted suicide. And STIs like syphilis, mpox and HIV are still far too common. Things need to change.
So, this June we’re fighting discrimination with perspiration, and have committed to exercising for at least 21 minutes every day to raise money to support Rainbow Kiwis.
This cause means a lot to us.
We’d be immensely grateful if you could chip in to help us reach our goal. (We're doing well on our individual pages, but our Team Goal is ambitious.) Every dollar we raise will fund life-changing mental, physical and sexual health services for Rainbow New Zealanders.
Thank you so much ❤️

Matt & Jo, You are always helpful, always supportive, and always fabulous - in all ways. I don't have a lot to give dollar-wise, but you've helped me see what I do have to give. Thank you for keeping my head above water; AUT, and the world, is beyond lucky to have you both.
