Most fundraisers are just that – fundraisers.
Well, here is one that is a heck of lot more than just fundraising.
Optimising You, which will be held next Friday, September 23, in Campbelltown PCYC, is different.
The two successful local women behind it – Serena Ryan and Melissa Woodward – started out by wanting to do something to help a great cause, in this case the Can Too Foundation.
But they wanted everyone who attended the fundraiser to also benefit directly themselves.
So Optimising You was born.
The concept is simple: four speakers who will discuss how women can reach their full potential by putting the focus on four key factors: mind, body, style and presence.
Serena and Melissa say they were inspired to put on Optimising You through their personal experience and a passion for wanting to raise money for the Can Too Foundation.
“We wanted to create the opportunity to help others reach their full potential,’’ they said.
“We realise you are only limited to achieve what you want by what you know.
“With this in mind, we have brought together four unique speakers who beautifully complement each other.
“They will work from the inside out to educate and inspire you.’’
They point out that when overwhelmed with responsibility, as young mothers often are, they struggle to see what they can achieve.
“As mums, we understand this feeling well,’’ ’’ Serena and Melissa said.
“We both run businesses, have children, are married and experience the juggle.
“Our vision is that everyone who attends Optimising You will take away at least one thing that will help them make a positive difference in their lives.
“These positive changes will not only affect them on the evening, they will have a ripple effect to their families, the community and beyond.’’
