Why I’m Sweating with Pride

I’m super excited to be taking on Sweat with Pride this June! πŸŽ‰ And you know what makes it even better? It's all for a great cause - our amazing Rainbow communities! πŸ’¦πŸŒˆ

Did you know that more than half of our rainbow whānau have experienced mental illness? That's not cool, right? And get this, one in five of our rainbow rangatahi (youth) have attempted suicide. We definitely need to make some changes!

So here's the plan: I'm going to fight discrimination with perspiration! πŸ’ͺ I've committed to exercising for at least 60 minutes every day to raise money and show our support for Rainbow Kiwis.

This cause means the world to me, and I would be over the moon if you could lend a hand and chip in to help me reach my goal. Every single dollar I raise will go towards funding life-changing mental, physical, and sexual health services for our awesome Rainbow New Zealanders.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You're amazing! πŸ’–πŸ’œπŸ’™Β
