In honor of 20/20, we’re challenging everyone to participate in 20 minutes of physical activity for 20 days!
September 18-October 8
(World Sight Day)
Let’s be honest, sheltering in place hasn’t been fun for anyone…we haven’t been able to see friends, family, or co-workers. So we thought it would be good to bring us all “together” (while still staying apart physically) to get active and raise money to help OneSight serve those affected by COVID and beyond.
What is Sweat for Sight 20/20?
It’s two things, really. The first part is a fitness challenge to raise awareness of the cause. 20 minutes of physical activity a day for 20 days (in 2020 no less, that’s a lot of 20s). What kind of physical activity? Any kind you like. Walk, run, swim, clean the house, jump on a pogo stick. It’s completely up to you. Just share on social media and help spread the word about how you care about closing the vision care gap for the 1 in 7 people around the world who can’t get the glasses they need.
Take it a step further: 20$20 Challenge
Kick things up a notch by adding a fundraising twist to your challenge. Set up a fundraising page and ask 20 of your friends to sponsor you for $20 each (or 40 friends for $10 each, or any other combination that adds up to $400). At $400, you’ll unlock a library of instructional videos from some of our friends around the world to teach you some of their favorite workout routines.
