This is my 2nd
year sweating
I’m sweating to challenge myself, boost my wellbeing, and support a great cause!

Why I’m Sweating with Pride
I'm taking on Sweat with Pride this June! 💦🌈
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. In particular, the recent Definitions of Woman and Man Bill threatens the health and wellbeing of Aotearoa's intersex, trans, and non-binary community.
So, I'm fighting discrimination with perspiration—aiming to exercise 60 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.
As an ally of the Rainbow community, I’d be grateful if you could chip in to help me reach my goal and support LGBTQIA+ communities around NZ. Every dollar makes a difference!
Thank you so much for your support! ❤️
