On Wednesday 25th September 2024, in the Atrium of the B:HIVE, Smales Farm, Takapuna, we ran a fun, challenging 6hr team-based Spin-a-thon called SPINFLUENCE. 29 teams, 166 participants, 12 of the best Cycle Instructors across Australasia and 115 of the coolest party music videos of the 80s, 90s, 2000 to present day. Teams were energised and motivated to ride relay format as hard and fast as they could for the 6hrs. The team that rode the most kms, being crowned Auckland’s Fittest Team.
This event was about engaging with our local business community and educating them on the challenges that our disadvantaged and/or displaced young Kiwi adults across Aotearoa face when it comes to getting mahi (work/employment). Rise Up Foundation is a new not-for-profit organisation established to help provide skills-based training programs and educational scholarships to help give these young adults a structured career path and the opportunity to earn a good, steady income, whilst increasing their knowledge and employment skills.
On behalf of Rise Up Foundation, we would like to thank the local business community, our parnters and sponsors, all participants and all those who supported this event, as we continue to push forward with our charitable purpose.
