1000km. 7 Days. One Mission: To Support Kids In Need
In just seven days, I'm about to push my body further than it's ever gone - 1000 kilometres, one pedal at a time. It's going to hurt. My legs will scream, my mind will beg me to stop, and there will be moments out there, alone with the road, when quitting will feel like the only option.
But I won't stop. Because right now, in Kenya and Tanzania, there are kids who won't set foot in a classroom this year - not because they don't want to learn, but because the opportunity simply isn't there yet. And right here at home, in NSW and ACT, there are families doing it tough, doing everything they can just to keep their kids safe, fed, and steady.
They all deserve better. Every single one of them.
That's where So They Can and BaptistCare HopeStreet come in. So They Can gives children in Kenya and Tanzania access to education - the one thing that can break the cycle of poverty and open up a future. BaptistCare HopeStreet stands beside families across NSW and ACT when things are hardest, offering the practical support that helps them feel safe, supported, and hopeful again.
So I'm turning my exhaustion into their opportunity. Every kilometre I cover is a kilometre closer to a child stepping into a classroom for the first time, and a family here at home getting the support they need to get back on their feet.
This isn't about me proving something. It's about showing up for kids and families who are doing the hardest thing imaginable - and making sure they don't have to do it alone.
Here's where you come in.
I can't cover this distance for them by myself I need you in my corner. Every dollar you give helps fund vital education programs in Kenya and Tanzania through So They Can, and practical support for struggling kids and families in NSW and ACT through BaptistCare HopeStreet.
1000km is a long way to go by myself. Will you help carry me there?
