This is my 3rd
year sweating

I’m sweating to take a stand against discrimination and create real change

Why I’m Sweating with Pride

Kia ora koutou,

This June, I'm taking on Sweat with Pride! 💦🌈

At a time when conversations about sex, gender, and identity are becoming increasingly divisive, it's important to remember the real people affected. Many LGBTQIA+ people still face discrimination and exclusion in schools, workplaces, healthcare settings, and everyday life.

These experiences contribute to higher rates of mental distress, suicide, and infections such as HIV, syphilis, and mpox within our rainbow communities.

That's why I'm committing to 42 minutes of exercise every day throughout June to raise funds for life changing Rainbow support services.

This cause means a lot to me, and I'd be incredibly grateful for any support. Every dollar helps create a safer, more inclusive Aotearoa.

Ngā mihi nui for your support ❤️
