Our BIG Challenge to help children in need!
We are taking on The Smith Family Challenge 2024! We will run, ride, paddle and navigate our way through the bush, over mountains and up rivers to complete the course.
Over 2 days we will cover more than 100km!!
It will be tough but the effort will all be worth it so that kids in need can break the poverty cycle.
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 the cycle of disadvantage.
Your donation will give children in need essentials like school books, bags, uniforms, shoes and the help they need to keep up at school.
Thanks for your support
So far this year, our team has helped provide:
692
School Essentials Packs
168
reading buddies and books
191
children with their education
