3km a Day for Infant & Child Loss & Miscarriage

Every day, nine babies and children are lost suddenly or unexpectedly in Australia.

This August, I’m walking 3km every day, 93km in total, to raise awareness and funds for families affected by miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant and child loss. 

Through my work in fertility, I have the privilege of supporting people on their journey to create a family of their own. I see firsthand how deeply wanted and loved these little lives are, and how much hope, courage, and vulnerability can be involved in the journey to parenthood.

I also understand that not every journey has the ending that was hoped for. Behind every loss is a family carrying an unimaginable grief that can often feel invisible to the outside world. Some families only get minutes or days with their precious little ones. Others never get to see their child take their first breath.

This cause is incredibly important to me, and I want to use my 3km a day challenge to honour the babies and children who are loved, missed, and remembered every single day, while helping support the families who are navigating the heartbreak of loss.

If you’re able to donate, no matter how big or small, your contribution will help support families through one of the most difficult experiences they can face. If you can’t donate, sharing my fundraiser or simply cheering me on throughout August would mean just as much.

Thank you for helping me make every step count 💙
