Organisation of the sale of “Thrive T-Shirts”. All Proceeds went to the Orphans girls of the Upendo Children’s Rehabilitation Centre
Here all of the activities linked to the Thrive T-shirts sale:
• 5th April 2017 --> Launch of the Thrive Program when the T-shirts went officially on sale. The key event on that day was the so called "Smoothie Challenge" organized by the Health Provider Irish Life. What does a Smoothie Challenge involve? Individuals race on specially adapted smoothie bikes against the clock or each other to complete a simulated Smoothie Bike Mile. The faster you pedal the quicker you complete the mile and of course the more delicious the smoothie at the end of the race!

• 21st April 2017 --> Lunch Fun Run. We organized a “purple” 5K run at lunch time open to everyone and encouraged people to wear a Thrive T-shirt and buy one if they hadn't done so yet. A good few people took part and they all very proudly sported a Thrive T-shirt.
• 19th May 2017 --> As part of the Mental Health Month (May) we decided to show the Pixar movie, Inside Out, in the Office Canteen and have the Thrive T-shirts on sale too. All of the members of the Thrive Committee were wearing one. It was a great success!
• 8th June 2017 --> Creation of a giant Y visible from the sky. Each individual was wearing a purple shirt
Each Purple shirt is hope for the children, and a donation for the orphan girls of Upendo !
