Here's your chance to pit yourself against 600 Firefighters in a climb up 28 floors wearing 25kgs of Turnout Gear and Breathing Apparatus. This year, the Firefighter's Charity Fund with your help will be climbing to raise $700,000 to aid in the fight against depression, PTSI and suicide. Compete, donate, or sponsor a Firefighter to help the Emergency Services Foundation support mental health initiatives.
I’ve signed up again for the 2026 Firefighter Stair Climb on 12 September.
This year I’ll be climbing 28 floors in 25kg of firefighting PPC while wearing full breathing apparatus and climbing “on air.” My goal is to raise $1,000 for our beneficiaries: Lifeline, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation, and the 000 Foundation.
Please help me “Step up to fight cancer, depression, and suicide” by sponsoring me below.
Thanks for your support.
So far, I've raised $450 of my $1,000 fundraising goal.
