I'm fundraising for...

Three in four Australians will experience a mental health challenge by the time they turn 25. Orygen works with young people, their families and friends, to develop new, positive approaches to preventing and treating mental disorders.

It’s been a challenging year for us all, and most of us could probably use some help in bouncing back towards a more positive state of mind. We have certainly noticed the impacts of navigating parenthood, sleep deprivation and lack of exercise on our own mental health!

That’s why this October we are joining the Burpee Bounce Back Challenge, helping our own mental health by increasing physical activity, and helping others by fundraising for mental health research so that young Aussies whose mental health isn’t going great can bounce back. Together, we will be doing 1534 burpees from the 14-30th October.

You can help by donating, spreading the word or joining us for a burpee or post workout coffee! Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
