The Smith Family Challenge 2026

Our BIG Challenge to help children in need!

We're taking on The Smith Family Challenge 2026 to help children in need to break the cycle of disadvantage through education.

Over 2 days our team will run, mountain bike and kayak over 100km through the course to reach the finish line.

It's going to be TOUGH! But the hard work will all be worth it so that we can help kids in need with their education.

In Australia, 1 in 6 children are growing up in disadvantaged homes, where even the basics in life are hard to come by.

But supporting their education is the key to breaking this cycle!

Your donation will give these kids the essentials they need like school books, bags, uniforms, shoes and extra help at school.

Thanks for your support!

So far this year, our team has helped provide:

127

School Essentials Packs

31

reading buddies and books

35

children with their education

From Adelaide shores came a lad named Glen, Now billing six minutes like most city men. A lawyer by trade in Sydney’s bright fray, But he swapped briefs for burpees for two solid days. For kids helped by The Smith Family, he pushed through the pain, With teammates who questioned his sanity and brain. Blue eyes still shining, though hair’s on the run— Proof courage grows stronger as follicles are done.

Now you might not have hit me up, so this may come as a surprise. But Angus did, and as you’re in the same team, but you have a lower total, and we are forever bonded by our misadventures on a cold and blustery Coolangatta morning, I choose to donate to you for a moment of contemplation as the going is tough. All the best
