Mornington Peninsula-based not-for-profit organisation Speak & Share is hosting its first fun run – Sweat & Share – to raise money to achieve its mission: to influence community culture and educate on mental health strategies.
Sweat & Share was created after Peninsula mates and keen runners Ellis and Emilio approached Speak & Share wanting to raise money for the great work the organisation is doing. There are 5km, 9km and 21km runs; the 9km run acknowledges the nine people who die by suicide each day in Australia.
While Sweat & Share is a fundraiser, it’s designed to bring people together to feel part of something and to promote a message. The message is that no matter how young or old you are, we all need to work together to improve the culture of mental health. The Sweat & Share creators see the fun run as an opportunity to take a step forward together towards changing the culture.
Sweat & Share will be held at Safety Beach on December 4. You can run, jog or walk and raise money to improve mental health in our community. Every dollar raised will help Speak & Share achieve its mission through programs and events held in schools, sporting clubs, business, and the broader community.
