100 Skips a Day 2026

I’m fundraising in honour of my son, Jacen.

So far I have completed 200 skips in
August for kids with genetic diseases

Total Skips

200 Skips

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

My son, Jacen, was 3months and 1 day old when he gained his wings after losing his battle to Mitochondrial Acidosis disease which is a genetic disorder. 

Just like my son, I care about the 1 in 20 Aussie kids who face a birth defect or genetic disease. So, the research you and I support today may one day help someone we know, someone in your family.

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

Join me. Share this message. Donate. Thank You!
