This is my 2nd
year sweating

I’m sweating to celebrate and uplift my Rainbow whānau

Why I’m Sweating with Pride

Kia ora whānau, 

Mm-hmm that's right, I'm taking on Sweat with Pride this June! 💦🌈
For many decades, the LGBTQIA+ community have faced a lot of discrimination, isolation and stigma from society just based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. In turn, this has led to higher rates of mental illness, suicide, and STIs like syphilis, mpox, and HIV. 

Being gay/takatāpui and autistic myself, I've been fortunate to have a lot of love and support from many whānau and friends as well as counselling to be myself and enjoy life in full. The same cannot be said for many others in the rainbow communities in Aotearoa, especially youth, that don't have that support or love they deserve.

That's why I'm taking part in this initiative - exercising 30 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.
This cause is personal and dear to me and it would mean the world if you could chip in to help me reach my goal. Every dollar makes a difference.

Thank you so much for the support 🧡
