Welcome to Fit for Good

Fit for Good is the fitness industry’s charitable foundation designed to provide health and fitness opportunities for Australians in need.

Fit for Good is a CONNECTOR. We strive to fill requests for health and fitness initiatives within community service and employment service organisations with our resource bank of volunteers, donated products and services, scholarships and financial contributions. These requests can include things like:

  • Teaching fitness or well-being classes at homeless or rehabilitation centres 
  • Mentoring people in need to go on a health and well-being journey
  • Delivering seminars on all aspects of health and fitness
  • Providing scholarships to attain Cert III and Cert IV in Fitness for people who have overcome hardship
  • Providing fitness centre memberships to those who cannot afford them
  • Providing exercise footwear and clothing to people in need  
  • Sourcing second-hand fitness equipment to equip small fitness facilities in helping centres....and much more!

Fit for Good was launched in April 2011 and throughout last year our services and initiatives were implemented exclusively through our Launch Partner, Mission Australia.  As of January 2012, we are offering Fit for Good initiatives to the wider helping world. If you work for Mission Australia CLICK HERE to apply for our services. If you are from another helping organisation, fill out an ENQUIRY FORM HERE and someone from the Fit for Good office will be in touch.

If you are a fitness professional interested in volunteering or donating products or resources, follow the links to Get Involved. 

We look forward to hearing from you!

Mission Australia

Our Launch Partner     
Fit for Good is delighted to have Mission Australia as our Launch Partner. Initially, our focus will be to work closely with Mission Australia, placing Fit for Good initiatives in their facilities. This process will allow organic development of our services which will then be offered to the wider helping community.
