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.
Hi. I am honoured to join 700 firefighters on September 7th, and climb 28 floors in 25kg of kit and help raise $750,000 to support Lifeline, and MFSC’s other beneficiaries Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation and 000Foundation.
Everyone I know has, or knows someone who has, been touched by mental health issues or cancer. Now is my time to do something tangible and impactful to help.
Please help me “Step up to fight cancer, depression, and suicide” by sponsoring me below.
Thanks to our sponsors, 100% of every dollar donated will go to cancer research and crisis support.
