Climbing for CFA Patterson River

The Melbourne Firefighter stair climb involves ascending 28 Floors of the Crown Metropol in full structural gear with breathing apparatus to raise funds for Cancer Research and Crisis Support.

I did this event back in 2020 but did not have Breathing Apparatus qualification at the time so wanted to go back and have the full experience with fellow crew member Eren Guven and hopefully raise some more money!

Donations of any size are much appreciated and this is for a great cause :)

9/11 Memorial

The Melbourne Firefighter Stair Climb remembers the 343 Firefighters that lost their lives in the line of duty on 11th September 2001.

My stair climb race bib will include the name and photo of FDNY Firefighter Vincent E Brunton in memory of their sacrifice made on that fateful day. Search and read more about Vincent E Brunton.

So far, I've raised $335 of my $100 fundraising goal.
