Wellbeing Bingo Challenge!
Join us for 3 weeks of Wellbeing Bingo! Our goal is to support each other and focus on making small healthy changes each day to help build long lasting habits. By taking care of ourselves, we can show up better for others!
We’d love to have you join us! Here’s our printable Bingo card, but if you don’t have a printer at home, you can keep up with us through Instagram instead — we’ll be sharing the card in our “Wellbeing Bingo” highlight (follow us at @my_healthkick), so you can screen capture the card and “fill it out” by putting GIFs or emojis over the squares you’ve completed and tagging HealthKick partners you used!
Here’s how it works:
For the next three weeks of July, try to get at least one Bingo — that’s one completed row in any direction. For a little more of a challenge, try to fill out the entire card!
Details about each activity are included below with recommended HealthKick partners to use (you are entered to win $50 of HK credit for each HealthKick partner you use), but the real key to Wellbeing Bingo is to make it your own — we’re all just doing our best right now, and by making small changes daily we can make great progress towards our wellbeing goals!
- For each HealthKick partner you use during the Wellbeing Bingo Challenge, you will be entered to win $50 of HealthKick Credit!
- HealthKick will make a $100 donation on behalf of 3 winners to one of the non-profits below.
How to Win:
If you’d like to play along for prizes, just take a picture of your card and submit on or before Sunday, 8/9 in one of two ways:
- Post a picture of your wellbeing bingo card on Instagram and “fill it out” by putting GIFs or emojis over the squares you’ve completed and tagging any HealthKick partners you used! Use the hashtag #wellbeingbingo and tag us at @my_healthkick
- Or email us your bingo card to [email protected] with “Wellbeing Bingo Card” in the subject line
