TRY IT ON fundraising programme
When entering the Sanitarium Weet-Bix™ Kids TRYathlon, a fundraising page for the Weet-Bix™ TRYathlon Foundation - TRY IT ON programme will be created for each TRYathlete.
TRY IT ON is a fundraising programme that lets TRYathlon participants fundraise so less fortunate kids from their community can participate in a Weet-Bix™ Kids TRYathlon™ event too.
Fundraising is optional. 100% of funds raised will go directly towards supporting children in and around your local community.
