100 Skips a Day 2026

I’m fundraising in support of my friend.

So far I have completed 1,500 skips in
August for kids with genetic diseases

Total Skips

1,500 Skips

Goal

3,100 Skips

Why I’m skipping

I’m taking on a 100 skips a day challenge for Jeans for Genes, because who knew fitness and fundraising could go hand in hand?

I’ll be jumping around daily to help support kids living with genetic conditions, and honestly… it’s already more cardio than I signed up for.

But it’s all for a really important cause, helping fund research, care, and support that can make a real difference to families who need it most.

If you’re able to donate, I’d really appreciate it, and if not, feel free to just picture me tripping over a skipping rope for motivation!

Thanks so much for your support!
