Goal

3,100 Skips

Why I’m skipping
I’ve signed up to do 100 skips a day throughout August to raise money for Children’s Medical Research Institute and help save more kids’ lives. I'm sure you all know someone who suffers or had lost their fight too soon to cancer, disease or life changing diagnosis of some kind. 

I was reading the Kathy Freeman kids storybook "Born to run" and how she ran for many reasons but must of all when she wanted to quit she ran for her sister Anne- Marie who had Serebral Palsy that ended up taking her life. 

In the footsteps of Kathy Freeman, I want to skip because I can. Others don't have that privilege... although I'm no world class skipper.

Can you help by sharing this message with the people you know and asking them to donate too?

Research needs to continue so the next child diagnosed with a rare form of AML or any cancer can be helped.”

I care about the 1 in 20 Aussie kids who face a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer. Most people don’t know that cancer is caused by changes in genes—but almost everyone will be touched by it. So, the research you and I support today may one day help someone we know, someone in our family.

There’s lots of work to do, but there is also lots of hope.
