I’m fundraising to save little lives this August!

Banks was a beautiful little boy who was born on June 26th and passed away on July 2nd. His parents, Chloe and Emmit, only had a short time with him — but during his days in the NICU, he fought such a brave fight. He was incredibly strong, brave and deeply loved every second he was here.

We’re walking for Banks, and for the many other families who’ve faced the unimaginable.

Every day in Australia, nine babies and children are lost suddenly or unexpectedly. Some families only get minutes or days with their little ones. Others never get to see their child take their first breath.

By taking on the Red, Set, Go Challenge this August, we’re raising funds for Red Nose to support vital research and provide grief counselling for families living through the heartbreak of losing a baby or child.

So this August, we’re throwing on our sneakers and running/walking at least 3km a day, for 31 days — in Banks’ name, and for all the little lives gone too soon.

Please support us if you can. Every step we take and every dollar raised helps save little lives — and honours the ones we hold in our hearts forever. 

Share it with your workplace, ya mum, ya neighbour, ya dog — anyone with a heart and a wallet. Let’s do this for Banks. 🏃‍♀️💖
