Climbing for CFA Wesburn-Millgrove

Hi everybody! :) On September 7th, I’ll be climbing 28 floors in 25kg of structure kit and BA (with the help of more than a few friends), helping to raise $750,000 supporting some charities I personally very strongly about, Lifeline, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation and the 000Foundation.

At previous events I have spoken with volunteers from these organisations and they are very, very appreciative of your support.

Thanks to our sponsors, 100% of every dollar donated will go to cancer research and crisis support.

As we witness the Black Dog increasingly at work in our community, it is more important then ever that we help those that help others in their darkest moments.

If you feel able to support this effort financially, please give where you can and know that those at Lifeline, the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation and the 000Foundation will be able to continue their selfless work.

Thank you for your support!

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 D Marshall in memory of their sacrifice made on that fateful day. Search and read more about John D Marshall.

So far, I've raised $360 of my $500 fundraising goal.
