Make A Move For Ukraine

There are certain moments in history when we are drawn together, as humans, to help each other. We unite as people and there is an outpouring of compassion for one another. Sometimes it’s easy to feel a little helpless in these moments and unsure of what you can do to help.

We are all aware of the situation that people are facing in Ukraine right now. At the time of writing, over 2.5 million people have fled the country and those that remain are living in desperate conditions. We feel it is our duty to help and so we have come up with an initiative to help to support the Ukrainian people. Through our Make a Move for Ukraine initiative, we will be donating to the Red Cross which will help provide food, shelter, first aid, medicine and warm clothes to those who need them. We are calling on everybody across the entire group to make a move for Ukraine.

HOW IT WORKS
The challenge is simple; globally around the group we have 3 targets to hit in points, at each target Jacobi will make a donation. When we reach 1000 points, Jacobi will donate $1000, $5000 dollars for the 5000 point target, and $10,000 for the 10,000 point target. A total of $16k!

The targets are met by physical activity, with different activities winning a different amount of points. Once you’ve done your activity and clocked up your points, register them using the form on this webpage. There’s no limit to how many different activities you can do or how many points you can earn. We will collect together all the entries and update the points totals along the way with an announcement each time one of the donation goals is reached. Now what are you waiting for? Get moving!  

WALK
Venture out into your local surroundings. Enjoy nature. Daily walks are encouraged to help us reach our goal.
1km of walking = 1 point

Maybe you like to run? Great! We want you to help gain some points towards our goal. Give it your best.
2km of running = 1 point

CYCLE
If cycling is your thing then great. Get on your bike and ride!

Dive in and earn some points by swimming. Indoor or outdoor swimming both count.

MISCELLANEOUS
This category includes any other physical activity. Yoga, dancing, pilates, tennis, weight-lifting, team sports – the list is endless!
1 hour of a miscellaneous activity = 1 point.
