Why I’m Sweating with Pride
I'm taking on Sweat with Pride this June... Again! I had such a great time last year and I'm back! I am as surprised as you are.
Right now, schools, workplaces, and even doctors’ offices aren’t safe for many in our community—and it’s putting lives at risk. LGBTQIA+ Kiwis face higher rates of mental illness, suicide, and STIs like syphilis, mpox, and HIV.
So, I'm fighting discrimination with perspiration—exercising 42 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.
This cause means the world to me, and I’d be SO grateful if you could chip in to help me reach my goal. Every dollar makes a difference.
Thank you so much for your support! ❤️
Let's show the abject nongs running our country how full of love we are for our communities, and also how generally sweaty we are as people!
