Why I’m Sweating with Pride
I've committed to studying (not exercising this year, unfortunately, I'm too busy now 😭) for at least 150 minutes every day to raise money to support Rainbow Kiwis 🌈.
This means a lot to me. I’d be really 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!
- Vanessa ❤️
-------------------------------
Our schools, workplaces, and doctors’ offices are still not safe places for many Rainbow New Zealanders and it’s putting lives at risk.
More than half our rainbow whānau 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, and that's why I'm taking part in Sweat with Pride again this year, after raising more than $700 in 2023.
My Impact
So far in this year’s challenge I have…
