I'm fundraising for...
May is Lung Health Awareness Month so we are again fundraising to support Lung Foundation Australia in honour of Cheryl Martin.
Cheryl was our Mum, Wife, Nan, and Mother in Law. She had asthma in childhood and in her later years developed COPD and bronchiectasis which ultimately took her life in March 2023. Cheryl had never smoked.
This year, we will be completing a number of individual challenges every day in May, culminating in a (very) cold plunge in the Yarra River on 7 June during the first week of winter.
By donating to our fundraiser, you are not only encouraging us to complete our challenges and honouring Cheryl, you are also helping Lung Foundation Australia fund research into lung health, spreading awareness of lung disease, and supporting those living with lung conditions.
Phil's Challenge: Eating one green food every day (aka "yuck, green stuff")
Melissa's Challenge: Walking 10,000 steps a day
Andrew's Challenge: Riding 1km on an exercise bike every day (Andrew is recovering from open heart surgery so this is incredible!)
Rebecca's Challenge: 31 minutes on a pushbike every day
Georgia's Challenge: Reading 31 book chapters
Lincoln's Challenge: Shooting 31 basketball hoops a day
Please help us by making a donation!
It only takes a minute and any money you can give (no matter how large or small) will go a long way to helping us reach our target.
Thank you xx
