From: Deane Richards

Valid from: Friday 1 July 2022 to Saturday 2 July 2022


It’s DRY July! This year, NICM, Next Practice WSIH and WHS and Wellbeing will once again be fundraising for supportive care services for people with cancer in Western Sydney.

If you would like to help us fundraise, please see below details to join the Western Sydney University Dry July Team. You can also donate to the team if you won’t be fundraising.

Instructions for how to sign up to Dry July and join the WSU Team

• Click Here - https://www.dryjuly.com/teams/western-sydney-university-3 to join the WSU team
• Ensure that you click on the “Join Team” button on the bottom left of the page


• Complete your personal/contact details and set a password (ensure you use your staff name at WSU so that we know it’s you and we can then invite you to our online support services!)

• Make sure you select “Dry July Foundation” as the beneficiary.

• You’re now part of our team! From your Fundraising Page, you are able to SHARE your page via Facebook and other socials or copy your page link and send directly to friends and family to raise funds for Dry July.

• Alternatively, you can click on “Join Team” on our Dry July team page, if you have already signed up to Dry July!

• Want to battle it out by department, office or location for a bit of healthy competition? If you would like to start your own department teams within the WSU team, you will need to first create a profile and create your team, then email Sarah Benna Doyle (s.bennadoyle@westernsydney.edu.au) to ask for the team to be added to the WSU team. This step is import because if your team doesn’t get added, you will not be raising funds for Next Practice WSIH!

Don’t want to sign up for 31 days?

No problem! You can choose to sign up for 31 days, 21 or 14 days dry!
