Walking for a Cause That’s in My DNA 

Gene for Jeans Fundraiser 💙👖

From August 1st to 31st, I’ll be walking 60km to raise $400 for Jeans for Genes a cause that’s deeply personal to me.

Both of my beautiful children were born with  genetic disorders: 16p13.11 syndrome and genetic blood  conditions.

I know firsthand how overwhelming and isolating this journey can feel. 

The worry. The waiting. The medical jargon. The strength you have to find (even on the days you’re running on empty).

That’s why I’m supporting Jeans for Genes a foundation that funds vital research and provides hope for families like mine. Early diagnosis, better treatments, and one day, maybe even cures.

So I’ll be lacing up my shoes and walking 60km this August. Not just for my own kids but for the 1 in 20 Aussie kids born with a genetic condition.

If you feel called to support, every little bit counts.

Thank you for helping turn heartbreak into hope. 💙

With love,

Emma
