About the Yogathon

Why Yogathon?
Yoga is one of the therapies offered through Cancerpoint - our day clinic. Our classes involve therapeutic yoga for cancer survivors and their supporters. Therefore it makes sense for us to combine fundraising with the services we provide.

What sort of fundraising can I do?
Anything you can think of! You could get sponsored to practice yoga every day for 10 days, you could get a group of friends together and enjoy a yoga session together, you could try and break a yoga world record, and you could even get sponsored to hold a pose. You can even get your local yoga group involved – the more the merrier!

Depending on the event and fundraising you choose, you can raise money is many ways our fundraising pack which is full of ideas, hints and tips and information to help you fundraise and make the most of Yogathon.
