I am fundraising for..
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.
In March 2024, I will be climbing 2,228 metres above sea level to reach Australia’s highest point to help RCA.
One hundred per cent of funds raised through the Kosi Challenge goes towards the important work of RCA's Patient Support Team.
From helping patients to access specialists and treatments, through to delivering support groups, connecting people with services and providing financial assistance particularly in times of crisis, Patient Support is at the heart of what RCA does.
RCA is a Federal Government-classified Health Promotion Charity. All donations over AU $2 are fully tax deductible.
Thank you so much for your support.

My Updates
Because I can
On Saturday, 16 March 2024 I’ll be hiking to the top of Mt Kosciuszko for the 4th time to raise funds & awareness for rare, less common and complex cancers as part of the Rare Cancers Australia annual #KosiChallenge
As I make the climb the 2,228 m to the top of Australia’s highest peak, I’ll be thinking about my own family members who have lost their fight with one of these rare cancers.
I hope to personally raise $1000 or more, I'm almost 70% to achieving this personal fundraising goal and I would love to have your help to meet this commitment.
Every dollar raised will go towards funding:
➕ Personalised support, information and guidance
➕ Access to treatment, specialists and services
➕ Emergency funding for patients in need
In real terms, if I raise $250, I will fund accommodation for a rural or regional family receiving treatment in a metro cancer centre.
