I am fundraising for..

My dad, who was recently diagnosed with a rare neuro-endocrine cancer and is currently battling through chemotherapy. This challenge is for him—a tribute to his unwavering strength and courage.

In March 2024, I will be climbing 2,228 metres above sea level to reach Australia’s highest point. The Kosi Challenge is an annual event hosted by Rare Cancers Australia (RCA) to raise awareness and much-needed funds for Australians diagnosed with a rare, less common, or complex cancer each year.

One hundred per cent of the funds raised through the Kosi Challenge go towards RCA's Patient Support Team. This incredible group is dedicated to helping patients access specialists and treatments, delivering support groups, connecting people with services, and providing financial assistance, especially in times of crisis. Patient Support is at the heart of what RCA does, making an invaluable difference in the lives of those affected by rare cancers.

I'm inviting you to join me in making a difference. Every step I take during the Kosi Challenge is in honour of my dad and countless others facing the invisible battle against rare cancers.

Thank you so much for your support.
