Choosing the Right Event for You

When it comes to selecting the perfect event for your fundraising journey, there are a few key points to consider:

Registered Events: While you’re not obligated to join a registered event, doing so can provide structure, set targets, and help engage your community and friends. It offers a platform where you can amplify your efforts and connect with like-minded individuals who share your passion for making a difference.

Community Events: Opting for a community event that isn’t specific to another charity ensures that all funds raised directly benefit the Australian POTS Foundation. It also means you won’t be diverting funds away from another worthy cause.

Local Associations: Look to your local trail-running, cycling, kayaking, walking, or swimming associations for inspiration and information on upcoming events. These organisations often host a variety of challenges suitable for participants of all skill levels, providing a diverse array of options to choose from.
