May Cohort Events!

Heya social soldiers and future soldiers!

May is Mental Health Month, and with it, we bring a new cohort and two new events!

Our continuous event this month is the Bingo!
You will get a copy of the bingo once you join the team, It combines Reach-Out tasks and a 7-Day Challenge for you to complete. We are using this as a way to track work, everyone's goal is to get two rows of Bingo! Remember every row is 100 cheers, and completing your goal for one-month grants you the social soldiers' badge and for 3 months the social butterfly badge! Doing 3 extra tasks alongside your bingo grants you the All in One Badge, and 10 cheers per extra task.

This month has a little twist to it, Since it is Mental Health month, we've added a 7 Day Challenge to the Bingo and a Reach out challenge too!

7 Day Challenge;
We have set a challenge for you to complete in a 7 day period, you can do this on any days as long as you do each task on a different day! Each day has a different thing for you to post and here are the days. First step is to choose a Mental Illness.

Day 1 ~ Define a mental Illness #7cupsSS
Day 2 ~ Myth vs Fact for your chosen mental Illness #7cupsSS
Day 3 ~ Post an infographic on your chosen Mental Illness #7cupsSS
Day 4 ~ Share your stories, experiences, struggles (how it affects lives) #7cupsSS
Day 5 ~ Share an inspiring quote about it. #7cupsSS
Day 6 ~ Coping Mechanisms #7cupsSS
Day 7 ~ Resources for your chosen Mental Illness #7cupsSS

Reach out Challenge;
On the Bingo you will see a task that says;
'Pick a number from 1 - 10, find your number in the events post and reach out to that hashtag'
Choose a different number each time and reach out to the hashtags given for that number, some will have more than one hashtag, in that case, choosing the one you prefer.
