Hey guys, Over the last few years, I have undergone a number of different fitness challenges to raise awareness around sudden loss and bereavement. As some of you know this is extremely special and close to my heart. On Friday, September 20 at 9am I will attempt a Concept2 10km Row, Concept2 10km Ski, Concept2 20km Bike and a 10km road run every 4 hours for 24 HOURS. That’s correct I am planning on working continuously for 24 hours. My aim is to finish all 4 components in a 4-hour time period and repeat this 6 times finishing the challenge at 9am on Saturday, September 21 - That’s 300km covered in 24 hours. I’m doing this to raise money for the charity Hope Bereavement Care (Hope) who offer support to people who are dealing with a sudden loss. · My goal is to raise $15,000. I will complete my challenge from BeFit Studio, New South Head Road, Double Bay. I’d would love as many people as possible to get involved. Book a spot in one of the Saturday classes or jump in and join me for all or part of the row, ski, ride or run! · I’ll start at 9 am on September 20 and hope to finish by 9am on Saturday 21 Come along at any time. As well as raising money, I also want to raise awareness about the impact of sudden loss and ensure more people understand that support is available and know how to access it. Hope is a charity very close to my heart; 31st August 2024 will mark 14 years since we suddenly and tragically lost my Dad in a plane crash. It was a huge shock to our family, friends and anyone who knew him. Not a day goes by where I don't think about him and how much he's missed in all our lives. He was a huge role model to me and my sisters, and I try to instil his values in my kids. I have always wanted to organise a charity event to raise money and awareness about sudden loss and bereavement and this feels like a great way to do that! I hope that you can support me in whatever way you can – with a donation or support on the day. Instagram Handle Follow my progress throughout on Instagram. My handle is t_harty08 Please spread the word! Looking forward to seeing as many people jump onboard and participate on the day! Cheers, Tom.
Freo to Esperance....here we come! This October 12-20th we hit the road for the right cause and a whole heap of fun. We are raising funds for Bicycles for Humanity (WA) Inc - Developing Country Relief because we are inspired by their work. The difference they have made to so many people is just extraordinary and I know there are so many others that would benefit from their work. But they need more funding to make that happen. Also, I would be very grateful for you to share the link to this CrowdRaiser page to your friends and family. The more people who can help the better! More info at http://www.b4hwa.com/ Thank you
On 21 September, whilst more than 100 ranger teams are all running a 21 km half marathon in their wildlife reserves, their supporters will be walking/running for 5 or 10 km. World Ranger Challenge, a TUSK Trust initiative, Royal patron, Prince William, and their main sponsor, Scheinberg Relief Fund, have already committed many millions to African rangers. In return, all beneficiary projects are being asked to further raise some funds, which will be matched by Scheinberg Fund. Hence, my walk. At 80 years of age, I won’t have walked 4 km for quite some while, so it will be an effort to do so. But it’s for the rangers and must be done! In return, please can I ask all our 350 members to sponsor me for a modest $30 or so, or more if you wish, please? I’ve set a reasonably high target of $15,000 and look forward to your support please. Rangers walk about 20 km per day for a monthly pay of $300. This is the least we can all do for the men at the coalface of rhino conservation, the 55 dedicated rangers of Save Valley Conservancy. And remember, everything you give will be matched, and thus DOUBLED, so please dig deep. Also, I would be very grateful for you to share the link to this CrowdRaiser page to your friends and family. The more people who can help the better! Thank you, Nicholas

Wombat's Wish provides weekend grief programs for kids and the surviving parent/carer, counselling sessions, online support lounges, and family social days all at no cost to the attendees. As a member of this amazing team I personally see the wonderful impact our programs have on the kids and families who attend! Being a Camp Leader has been a highlight of my social work career.

On the 21st of April, 2024, we lost our sweet girl, Ellsie, to SIDS. She was completely healthy and the happiest little girl you would ever meet. We knew SIDS existed but never thought it would happen to us. We want to do as much as we can to help the research for SIDS in memory of our princess Ellsie. We are inspired by the work River's Gift do in Stamping Out SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). The impact they make in funding vital SIDS research, delivering infant safe sleep education and advocating for the infants and families affected by SIDS, is incredible. River's Gift are Australia's leading SIDS research funding organisation. Shine Blue 2024 marks the 13th anniversary of the passing of River Waddell to SIDS in November 2011. This campaign helps shine a spotlight on SIDS, a syndrome that isn't afforded anywhere near the attention and focus that it once was. In Australia each and every year, over 100 babies still lose their lives suddenly and unexpectedly in sleep. Our target for Shine Blue 2024 is $65,000 which will be channeled to the University of South Australia (UniSA), for the purpose of developing their unique SIDS biobank resource, and driving genetic research. Please support River's Gift's work by donating to our CrowdRaiser, as I know they will appreciate every cent received. And we will be very grateful for your contribution too!
