Every year we donate regularly to charity organizations and local fundraising events. We make $ donations or give away products/services. We also get involved in charitable events and run our own charity initiatives.

Read below details of some of our efforts.

• Red Cross Bush Fire Appeal – Donated $500 Cash
  
  

• Every year we support numerous local fundraising efforts for example:
  
  Kew High School Chaplaincy (2009 & 2010)
  Wheelchair Sports Vic
  Police Association
  Little St. Margarets KinderGarten
  
  We give all of these an Inta-Fitness gift pack with products and training vouchers.
  
  

• We always give $ to every street collector that visits us at our studio. Mostly they are selling chocolates but we don’t take the chocolates …. Obviously! We do like the badges, bookmarks and pins though.

  
  

• Each and every month since 2009 we donate $45 to the Guide Dog Association
  
  

• Each year I grow a mo and collect for Movember to support men’s health issues See here:

  I also street collect during this time visiting local traders most of whom are kind and generous (and the odd miserable sod who should have stayed in bed that day).
  
  

• In Feb 2010 we ran the Outa-Fatness Charity Challenge to raise money for Diabetes Vic. See here:

  Unfortunately this failed as a fundraiser (but was a great event) due to the fact that Diabetes Vic withdrew support after 1 week of the challenge starting, stating that they could not be seen to support a weight loss event. This was frustrating to say the least considering they had given us written approval. Funny thing is – it was not a weight loss event but a lifestyle transformation event that encouraged healthy behaviours and all those who participated transformed themselves and were very happy and a lot healthier! We, along with some great local sponsors supplied all prizes to the contestants but we could not ask them to raise money as was intended due to having no support from Diabetes Vic. Oh well, live and learn. We won’t stop trying to do good things.
  
  

• In November 2010 we ran a promo for Movember where we offered all the profit from the sales of fish oil to the Movember Foundation. Unfortunately this promo failed due to us being misled by Readers Digest (our partner) and we only sold 30 bottles from our 500 bottle target and this did not even cover the costs of the ads and flyers I printed  . Oh well, yet again burned by big business. They just wanted the advertising $. Ok, rest assured I will not make the same mistakes in future and I will not rest until I have successfully completed the best damn fitness charity event in Australia 
  
  See here for a laugh though as the Mo-Fish explains the idea behind this event:

• Most recently a team of us enrolled in and completed the Run for the Kids in April 2011. This was a fun day for all and a great event to support the Royal Childrens Hospital. Check out the pics here:
