FebFast 2010
FebFast Facts
FebFast Ltd the Trustee for FebFast Ancillary Fund Trust is the original fundraiser of its kind in Australia. The 2010 fundraising campaign will be FebFast's third year of raising funds to support the reduction of alcohol and other drug related harms in young Australians. FebFast invites individuals to sacrifice their alcohol intake during the shortest month of the year, and at the same time raise funds to support the organisations working with young people to reduce their alcohol and other drug problems. Participating in FebFast delivers real health benefits: 60% of past participants said they felt healthier after completing the month, and one in five reported losing weight. (Based on 2008 survey). In the last two years FebFast has attracted more than 3,500 people to participate in taking a month off from alcohol consumption. The organisation has raised more than $700,000 for distribution via a grants program to 13 organisations working in the Australian alcohol and other drugs service sector. FebFast provides an opportunity to feel better about yourself, reflect on past consumption behaviours, reduce your waistline and save some money! Donations made in Australia over $2.00 are Tax Deductible. |
