SWEAT WITH PRIDE IS BACK 🌈

ACON is delighted to be a proud partner of Sweat With Pride as it returns in June 2026. We're teaming up with Rainbow Giving Australia to once again call on you to get sweaty for 21 minutes a day in June and raise money for life-changing services.

It's easy to get involved. You can team up or go solo. And the best bit? A portion of the funds raised will empower ACON's vital community programmes that support LGBTQ+ people all across NSW.

YOUR SWEAT WILL CHANGE LIVES

You won't just be getting sweaty. You’ll be helping to change lives by raising funds for essential ACON services. Every dollar you raise will directly support the wellbeing of our rainbow communities, and every move you make will supercharge your own wellbeing.

Run, walk, wheel, shimmy or skate - there’s no wrong way to get sweaty. So, what are you waiting for? On your marks, get set, sweat!

HOW YOUR SUPPORT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

KEEPING VITAL TRANS RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE

TransHub is our groundbreaking national website providing vital information, resources, and support services for trans and gender-diverse people, clinicians, and allies. Over 40,000 people access TransHub each month.

SUPPORTING FIRST NATIONS LGBTQ+ HEALTH AND WELLBEING

ACON's First Nations Health Programs work to improve the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are part of the LGBTQIA+, Sistergirl and Brotherboy communities, or living with HIV. Activities foster connection and promote health information, so community members can access vital care, resources, and support one another.

KEEPING OLDER LGBTQ+ PEOPLE CONNECTED & THIVING

The LOVE Project is a peer-led program helping older LGBTQIA+ people live healthier, more connected, and engaged lives. Regular social events and activities ensure more seniors can connect, access health information, and avoid isolation.
