So far I’ve completed 0 Ks for Kids this August

Why I’m Doing Ks for Kids

Did you know that 1 in 20 Aussie kids are born with a genetic disease or birth defect? That’s one in every classroom!

This fundraiser is important to me as I was lucky enough to find out I was a carrier of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy before I had children. Not everyone else is so fortunate. 

This August, I’m taking on the Ks for Kids challenge - walking or running to raise funds for Children’s Medical Research Institute, supporting scientists who are working today to find cures for tomorrow.

Your donation will help keep labs running, research advancing, and hope alive for kids who need it most.

Every step I take is for them. Your donation will help me go the distance and fund vital research!
