Dry July is a non-profit organisation determined to improve the
lives of adults living with cancer through an online social
community giving up booze for the month of July.
Whether joining as a part of a team or as an individual,
DJ’s (Dry.July.er [dee-jay] noun: a person or team actively
sponsored to participate in Dry July) take on the 31 days of July
to raise funds and directly help adults living with cancer and
their families to improve their quality of life.
This year Dry July is proud to have on board twenty
beneficiaries across Australia and New Zealand. The campaign
operates a full circle fundraising model, which gives
DJ’s clarity on how beneficiary funds are used within
each hospital. It is important to the Dry July Team to deliver an
efficient, low-cost campaign, utilising online technology to
minimise administration costs.
Dry July is also a chance to raise awareness of individual
drinking habits, the value of a balanced healthy lifestyle, a
personal challenge, encourage positive change and an awareness of a
healthy attitude to alcohol consumption.
