Why I’m Sweating with Pride
2026 will be our second year taking on Sweat with Pride to raise money for our Rainbow Communities in New Zealand and Australia 🌈
Sweat with Pride isn’t just about fitness - it’s about solidarity, visibility, and action. Every drop of sweat and every dollar raised goes directly toward life-changing support services for LGBTQIA+ people, including mental and physical health support, and community outreach programmes.
Pride is a celebration, but it’s also a powerful reminder. While we’ve made incredible strides toward equality, many in our rainbow communities still face discrimination, isolation, and barriers to essential services. By participating in Sweat with Pride, our people are standing up to say: we see you, we support you, and we’re here to help make a difference.
Last year, 10 incredible Datacomers laced up their sneakers, rolled out their yoga mats and got moving, together, they raised over $1,500 and collectively sweated for more than 10,000 minutes in support of our rainbow communities across Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia.
This year Datacom have entered a 3 Year Partnership with Sweat With Pride Australia to support this amazing initiative!
