Step challenges have become popular in workplaces to boost morale, promote health, and bring teams together.
Steptember has been a fantastic initiative for many years, raising funds and awareness for the Cerebral Palsy Alliance. However, Treely offers a unique, engaging, and eco-friendly solution for workplaces seeking a fresh alternative to a fundraising-based challenge.
Why step challenges work for Australian workplaces
Step challenges like Treely’s have become a cornerstone of workplace wellness programs in Australia.
Here’s why they’re so effective:
Boost physical and mental health: walking promotes movement and stress relief, benefiting employees across all roles.
Build team connections: shared goals, friendly competition, and collective impact foster a sense of community.
What makes Treely a great Steptember alternative?
Treely is an innovative step challenge that turns every 15,000 steps into a tree planted. Designed to be fun, inclusive, and easy to organise, it’s perfect for workplaces looking for a meaningful and impactful activity that doesn’t require fundraising.
Here’s why Treely stands out:

How Treely compares to Steptember
Both Treely and Steptember are fantastic initiatives that encourage movement and teamwork.
Here’s how they differ:
No fundraising required: Treely focuses on making an environmental impact through steps, offering a low-pressure option for teams.
Environmental focus: Every 15,000 steps plant a tree. The environmental aspect has universal appeal, creating a shared purpose that unites employees.
