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’m honoured to be participating with team Lifeline Melbourne in the 2024 Melbourne Firefighter Stair Climb.
On September 7 2024, I’ll be climbing Crown Metropol’s 28 floors in 25kg of kit alongside emergency services personnel to help raise $750,000 for Lifeline, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation and the 000 Foundation. 100% of every dollar donated goes towards these institutes.
For me, the event is a chance to increase support to Australians doing it tough, and a chance to show up some firefighters.
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 John R Family Fischer in memory of their sacrifice made on that fateful day. Search and read more about John R Family Fischer.
So far, I've raised $1,213 of my $1,000 fundraising goal.
