Support my ride in Ride For Wishes

I’m cycling for Make-A-Wish from the 1 – 28 February to raise funds to help grant wishes for seriously ill kids across Australia. 

I'd love your support. Please donate to my page, together we can make a lasting impact and help provide hope, joy and inspiration when kids need it most. 

Thank you.

Riding to give back.

In June 2014, our second son Ryder was born with HLHS (Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome) - a congenital heart disease that has required three separate open heart surgeries and extended stays at Melbourne's Royal Children's Hospital where he continues to receive treatment.  Ryder has always faced every one of his challenges bravely and if you were to meet him for the 1st time today you wouldn't immediately be aware of the trials he has had or will continue to face. When Ryder was 4 years old he was given the opportunity to have his own wish granted by the Make-A-Wish foundation and in January of 2019 he came home to his own 2 story, professionally designed and built, country cubby house. Now 5 years down the track it is the wish that continues to give and provides memories that not only Ryder, but our whole family will hold onto for life. It's something that I will forever be grateful for which is why I have decided to join this fundraiser and hopefully raise some money to help put a smile on another kids face who would definitely deserve it. 
I will be cycling a minimum of 200km during the month of February and my fundraising target is a modest $250 - obviously I would like to exceed this target but I know that money is tight for most people with cost of living increases and interest rate rises. Every little bit helps though and even $5 or $10 has an impact that $0 wouldn't. 
I'll be providing an update of kilometres travelled weekly on my Facebook page - thanks in advance to any support given to a great foundation!
