Current Affairs Making Waves – Port to Pub for Usher Kids

Supporting UsherKids Australia

UsherKids Australia

Helping Usher kids love their lives

On March 15, 2025, our team—Current Affairs—is taking on the Port to Pub swim, a 20km open water crossing from Perth to Rottnest Island! We’ve been friends since high school, and it’s been a dream of ours to take part in this event.

We’re swimming to raise funds for Usher Kids Australia, a fantastic organisation supporting young people and families affected by Usher syndrome, a rare genetic condition impacting vision and hearing.

This July, Usher Kids Australia is hosting its first-ever camp for teens with Usher syndrome—a unique experience designed just for them! It will be an incredible opportunity for these teens to connect, share experiences, and build lifelong friendships. We want to help make this camp as accessible and memorable as possible, and your support can help!

Every donation, big or small, will make a difference. Thank you for cheering us on and supporting this amazing cause! 💙🏊‍♀️

Donate now and help us make waves! 🌊
