Climbing for CFA Nilma North
Hi, my name is Ethan Norbury. I am a Forth Generation Firefighter, I come from a family with over a hundred years of service to the volunteer fire service. I joined the Country Fire Authority Junior Program when I was 13 years of age, The day I turned 16, I joined my local Country Fire Authority Brigade, and since then I have completed many courses including Breathing Apprutas, Low Structure and many others. Last year I was diagnosed with severe depression and struggled with my mental health till I was able to get the health I need, sadly I still have the scar to remind me of the struggle. On Saturday 2nd of September 2023, I will be battling 28 floors in up to 25kg of turnout gear and breathing apparatus as a symbol of the burden of significant health and well-being issues faced by our first responders and their families on a daily basis
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 Lawrence J Virgilio in memory of their sacrifice made on that fateful day. Search and read more about Lawrence J Virgilio.
So far, I've raised $1,196 of my $1,000 fundraising goal.
