A Message from The Heart Foundation

Join the Challenge!

Are you ready for the first fundraising challenge of 2023? This quarter, we are Doing It For Heart! 

From the 1st of February until the 16th of March, our overall goal is to achieve a combined total of 1000km, whilst fundraising for the Heart Foundation.

The aim of the challenge was to allow everyone, regardless of physical ability, to be able to participate, and as such you get to set your own personal target. For example, my personal goal is to cover 100km and raise $250.  Easy enough, right?  When you start adding everyone’s individual goals, we should easily be able to smash our target. 

So, what physical activities count? Well, all of them! Everything from walking/running to kayaking and gym workouts will count, but only if you remember to record it! To keep things interesting, you are also welcome to participate in the Weekly Photo Challenge. Each week there will be five randomly generated targets, and the aim is to locate these items during your exercise and snap a photo! Each Tuesday the first person to capture all five images will be recognized for their effort and will have the opportunity to write a blog post for our “Do It For Heart Challenge” with their captured photos uploaded for all to see. 

How can you get involved? I'm so glad you asked! To take part in the challenge, you will need to register for both the fundraiser, and the tracker app, once done, you're all set to go! Details and links below. 

Wondering what’s in it for you apart from improving your own health and wellbeing? Well, how about bragging rights? At the end of the 6 weeks (16th March) we will be crowning overall champions for the following categories with prizes TBC.
- Most Overall Kilometers
- Most Overall $ Donations
- Most Improved (from start to finish)
- Most Physical Variety
- Silliest Map/Route design

If you don’t want to participate in the challenge but still want to support, The Heart Foundation will be the Charity of the month for February so you will be able to donate via your wages, which the company will match dollar for dollar. There will also be gold coin donation points around the office to collect your spare change. No change? No Problem! Containers For Change collection points are going to start popping up around the office for you to put your eligible 10c containers into with all proceeds going to straight to the Heart Foundation. 

The challenge officially starts on Wednesday 1st February, and to kick it off, you are invited to join us in the morning for a walk around Elizabeth Quay and then breakfast before the day starts. 

What are you waiting for? Register now and let’s Do It For The Heart.

I wish to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the ancestral land on which this challenge will take place, the Whadjuk people of Noongar Boodja, and pay our respects to them, their culture; and to elders past, present and emerging. Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land.

The Bibbulmun were a sub-group of the Noongar people, whose boodja (country) extended for many hundreds of square miles, comprising the triangle of land from what is now Jurien Bay to Esperance. These people lived in the forests near to rivers and water holes, sharing them with birds, animals, and reptiles that they believed to be their elders, and which became, with the passing of the centuries, their ancestor gods. At this time, thousands of years ago, rivers, waterfalls, canyons, and beaches, as well as the sun, the moon, stars, animals, and birds had their own stories of creation and inter-connectivity. The Bibbulman track, name for the people, is a 1000km long walking trail that extends from Kalamunda in the hills, passing through the heart of the southwest all the way to the coastal town of Albany. During this challenge, we ask you to respect the land, take nothing with you, leave nothing behind and reflect on the history of the Noongar people who cared for this land for thousands of years before colonialization. 

Thank you to our Sponsors
