Sidetember is a special fundraising event which takes place during the month formerly known as September.
There are a few ways you can take part in Sidetember:
-
Sideburns - grow your sideburns for the month.
-
Side Jewellery - cant grow? Then wear our special, handcrafted jewellery - it's 100% sterling silver and looks amazing.
-
On the Side - take up a challenge On the Side - where you challenge yourself for the month. Could be giving up chocolate, doing a fun run or even going for a daily walk - it is up to you.
For doing this month long challenge we encourage people to get sponsorship.
Money raised by SideGuys and SideGirls goes to Brain Injury Organisations across Australia working with the 1 in 12 Australians currently living with a Brain Injury.
Donating yourself to charity for the month achieves another powerful impact - it starts conversations. There is very little public awareness surrounding Brain Injuries and the impact they have on people's lives.
We also hope that people take the time to think about some of the causes of brain injury and how they may be minimised. Whether that is taking it slower on the roads, not getting in to a fight when out on the town or protecting your head during sport - if Sidetember can get people talking and avoid just one ABI, then it has been a success.
So register now, get ready for Sidetember 1 and together, lets make a difference.
