Empowering Change Through Every Step: Zanda's Olympic October Steps Challenge Success!
At Zanda, our commitment to community impact and giving back is at the forefront of our values. Last month, we embarked on an inspiring journey with the Olympic October annual steps challenge, not just as a thrilling fitness competition but as a meaningful effort to make a positive impact on causes close to our hearts.
Together, 27 Zanda employees embraced the challenge with enthusiasm, collectively clocking an astounding 5.946 million steps!
This achievement goes beyond a mere testament to our dedication to well-being—it signifies a concrete step towards creating a positive change. We are delighted to announce that, through the admirable efforts of our team, we are donating a generous sum of $8,446.00 to WARPNINE.
“Your generous donation of $8,446.00, raised through the admirable efforts of 27 Zanda employees participating in the Steps challenge, deeply touches our hearts. The commitment and unity displayed by your team in completing almost 6 million steps to support WARPNINE’s mission are truly inspiring.”

About WARPNINE: A Beacon of Hope in the Fight Against Cancer
WARPNINE, founded in 2021 by Dr. Andrew Dean, a distinguished Australian Oncologist, is on a mission to advance dedicated research, raise awareness, and provide increased support for individuals and families affected by pancreatic, gastrointestinal, and rare cancers. The urgency of this mission is palpable, and every step we took during Olympic October is a step towards a brighter future for those facing these challenges.
More Australians die from pancreatic, gastro-intestinal and rare cancers each year than prostate and breast cancers combined. They have significantly worse prognosis and five-year survival rates.
Estimated numbers from 2021 show some of these heart-breaking statistics
