Why Iām Sweating with Pride
Iām taking on Sweat with Pride this June to raise money for our Rainbow communities! š¦š
Our schools, workplaces, and doctorsā offices are still not safe places for many Rainbow New Zealanders and itās putting lives at risk.
More than half our rainbow whÄnau have experienced mental illness. One in five of our rainbow rangatahi (youth) have attempted suicide. And life changing STIs like syphilis, mpox and HIV are still far too common. Things need to change.
So, this June Iām fighting discrimination with perspiration, and I've committed to exercising for at least 21 minutes EVERY DAY to raise money to support Rainbow Kiwis.
This cause means a lot to me. Iād be SO GRATEFUL if you could chip in to help me reach my goal. Every dollar I raise will fund life-changing mental, physical and sexual health services for Rainbow New Zealanders.
Thank you so much ā¤ļø š³ļøāš
