The Down There Affair is a bold, first-of-its-kind fundraising event that's tackling women's health issues from menstruation to menopause—the ones everyone experiences but no one wants to talk about.

Choose your challenge (7km or 12km walk in your skivvies!), hit strength training pit stops along the way and then celebrate at the EXPOsed after-party wth a DJ, vendors and a whole lot of community!

Literally, EVERYONE - regardless of gender, age, or background. Women's health issues affect everyone, and we need allies showing up (in their underwear!) to support this cause.

We want to make sure that EVERYONE can strip down for the cause, so we have two ways to participate.

1. In Person: Grab your favourite underwear and join us to walk, strength train and celebrate in person!

2. Virtual: Throw on your skivvies, walk & strength train on your own time and fundraise for women's below-the-belt health!

Absolutely!

Email us at showusyours@downthereaware.org and we'll get you sorted. 

To walk with us in person, you'll need to fundraise a minimum of $400 (but don't worry, that's the easy part!)

Look, we get it. The idea of walking through the streets of Toronto in your underwear might feel... well, exposing. And that's EXACTLY why we're doing it!

But here's the deal: you can wear whatever underwear makes you feel confident, comfortable, and bold. Briefs, boxers, boy shorts, granny panties, cheeky cuts—whatever makes you feel like the badass advocate you are. And if you want to wear them over your leggings, we're cool with that too!
