Story

I'm taking part in the 2014 Melbourne Marathon Festival and hoping to raise much needed funds for charity.

This October, I’m going to be sweating it out and doing my best to complete a gruelling course through the streets of Melbourne and ending back at the world famous 'G! Ever since my Primary School days I have disliked running and nothing has changed! This will be tough for me, but I'm determined to do it for such a good cause.

I am running 5km in the Melbourne Marathon for the asylum seeker families living in community detention who we (MacKillop Family Services) work with.
The money raised from the run will go towards sending the families on a weekend away with Edmund Rice Camps. ERC have been organising well deserved breaks for vulnerable children and families for the past 30 years.

These families are resilient, brave and joyful, despite their uncertain future and their traumatic past. These families would benefit greatly from a weekend break to have fun, relax, build self esteem and build relationships.

It would be amazing if you could make a tax deductable donation towards my cause and support Edmund Rice Camps.

I am honoured to be a part of this amazing race and helping a great cause, and I’d really appreciate your support in this endeavour. 


Thank you for your support and helping to make a difference
