100 Skips a Day 2026

So far I have completed 1,010 skips in
August for kids with genetic diseases

Total Skips

1,010 Skips

Goal

10,080 Skips

Why I’m fundraising
Globally 12 children are born every single minute with a birth defect or an incurable genetic disease. Across Australia this reality impacts 1 in every 20 kids—averaging roughly one child in every school classroom. Instead of enjoying a carefree childhood, these kids collectively account for 30% of all children's hospital admissions, enduring repetitive surgeries, organ transplants, and rigorous medical regimens.

am completing the 360 Skips a Day challenge for Jeans for Genes because the vast majority of these 6,000+ conditions currently have no known cure. By raising vital funds for the Children's Medical Research Institute, we can advance genetic research, develop life-saving treatments, and help these children just be kids again.

Thank you Sofia. Holly’s nephew has a genetic disorder that until recently would have killed him before he turned 10. Thanks to the dedicated work of scientists he should now live a full life. Thanks for supporting them.
