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 but we encourage all TRYathlete's to get involved. 100% of funds you raise will go directly towards supporting children in and around your local community.
