💛 Apparently, I thought walking 42km overnight sounded like a good idea...
This October, I'll be spending an entire night on my feet to raise funds for the Children's Hospital Foundation and Ronald McDonald House South East Queensland.
As the mother of a now grown son, I've been fortunate to watch him thrive and build his own life. Many families facing childhood illness don't get the luxury of a straightforward journey, which is why I'm keen to give back and support organisations that make an enormous difference when families need it most.
Now, despite my enthusiastic recruitment efforts, none of my colleagues have been willing to join me for an all night walking adventure. So, if you're not prepared to sacrifice a night's sleep and 42km of walking, perhaps you might consider sponsoring the person who is!
My goal is to raise $1,500 in the next three weeks, and every dollar will help support sick children and their families across Queensland.
I promise to do the walking if you'll consider the donating. Together, we can make a meaningful difference.
💛 Thankyou for your support.
