Hi there!
On Sunday 21st of May 2023 I will be running my first ever Half Marathon (21km)! Leading up to the race I will be trying to fundraise over $2000 to help Transplant Australia.
Transplant Australia has placed a personal touch on my life as my beautiful older sister underwent 2 x life saving Double Lung Transplants, her first one being at the age of 9 years old, and second one being at the age of 22 years old.
The incredible generosity shown by two very special donors & their families who made the decision to be organ donors have given my sister extra years of life and as a family we will forever be incredibly grateful!
Transplant Australia is focused on two goals:
- Maximising the number of Australians registered as organ donors.
- Helping transplant recipients transition back into a full and active life.
Your support will enable Transplant Australia to:
- Advocate for improvements to donation and transplant in Australia.
- Promote the need for everyone to registered as donors.
- Stage the Australian Transplant Games which celebrate transplantation and thanks donors.
- Support recipients in their recovery and ongoing journey with programs like ‘Living with a Transplant’.
Their vision is for organ and tissue donation to be accepted by all Australians giving others a second chance at a healthy, active and rewarding life.
It only takes a minute and any money you can give (no matter how large or small) will go a long way!
Thank you, I really appreciate your support!!
