Why I’m Sweating with Pride

I will be fundraising for Rainbow communities by Sweating with Pride this June ! 

There is lots stuff to sweat about in 2024 even without doing a fundraising challenge, so sorry if I am bailing you up for your spare sweaty change at a tricky financial time. 

In saying that, there are a lot of folks in the rainbow community who are needing a bit of extra help. While many of us have declared homophobia over, it is not the case for everyone! As well as needing support for our physical wellbeing, there's queer and trans folks out here needing plenty of therapy after the whole rainbow crossing fiasco, the bigoted protests against queer performers, and even haters taking on groups that are there to help the youths. 

For this June, I will be exercising everyday for AT LEAST 30 mins, and have teamed up with The Mellow Toners to help me stay inspired and on track. I will be posting updates when I can so you know that I am really getting up that early to go to the gym in winter. Hopefully I gain some physical health benefits. which as a queer person, is also arguably supporting the cause!  

 Every dollar I raise will fund life-changing mental, physical and sexual health services for Rainbow New Zealanders.

Thank you sooooo much ❤️
