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 am honoured to join hundreds of firefighters on 2nd September to climb 28 flights of stairs to help raise $700,000 in support of Lifeline, Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation and 000 Foundation.
I come across people daily, from all walks of life, that are experiencing some sort of mental health issue or have been effected by or are supporting someone with cancer. Thats why, this year, when I was asked if I would join the team of Lifeline to climb with the Fire Fighters in this huge fundraising event, I literally jumped at the opportunity to be part of the climbing team.
You can support me to ”Step up to fight cancer, depression and suicide” by sponsoring me below.
100% of every dollar raised will go directly to cancer research, crisis support and suicide prevention.
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 Daniel J Brethel in memory of their sacrifice made on that fateful day. Search and read more about Daniel J Brethel.
So far, I've raised $670 of my $500 fundraising goal.
