š Charlieās Rainbow March āMove for Changeā Challenge š
In support of paediatric AML research at Adelaide University.
āWith the UniSA and University of Adelaide merger into Adelaide University, weāre proud to launch the challenge alongside this next chapter in world-class cancer research.ā
Donāt have time to listen to me chat away, here is the downlowā¦
Hi our wonderful supporter,
This March, Iām inviting you to move with purpose.
The Charlieās Rainbow Move for Change Challenge is about choosing to move every day ā not because itās easy, but because children battling Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) donāt get a choice.
This challenge was born during Charlieās treatment ā moving in hospital corridors, small rooms and quiet moments between procedures. Movement became a way to cope, to breathe, and to keep going when everything felt out of control.
You can take part from anywhere:
⢠at home
⢠outdoors
⢠in the gym
⢠in the hospital
⢠on your own, with friends or family.
Every step, rep or stretch is a way of standing beside families living this reality.
š How it works
⢠Commit to moving every day in March
⢠Choose a challenge that feels meaningful (and a little uncomfortable) for you
⢠Ask friends, family or colleagues to sponsor your effort
⢠All funds raised support life-saving paediatric AML research.
Entry is a $30 minimum donation, and youāll receive:
⢠access to our private Charlieās Rainbow WhatsApp group
⢠daily movement ideas and gentle motivation
⢠stories, connection and real-time community support
š Want extra support?
Redefine Fitness Blackwood will be the community hub for the challenge.
You can opt into the Charlieās Rainbow Community Pass ($200), which includes:
⢠March access to selected classes
⢠a welcoming, women-only environment
⢠challenge-specific workouts
⢠in-gym accountability and atmosphere.
50% of this fee is donated directly to Charlieās Rainbow.
š As a thank you, anyone who opts into the Community Pass will receive APRIL FREE ā offered as continued accountability and support beyond March.
š Why sponsors matter
This challenge isnāt about how fit you are ā itās about what your movement represents.
By asking sponsors to donate to your daily effort, you are:
⢠raising vital funds for paediatric AML research
⢠spreading awareness
⢠honouring the children and families who donāt get to opt out of this fight.
