About
Support our team and empower local youth!
Our team are tackling Australia’s toughest team endurance event, the Kokoda Challenge, and we need your help! We’re not just hiking for ourselves, we’re hiking for a cause – to fundraise for the Kokoda Youth Foundation who run life-changing programs for young people across Australia. Their programs provide disengaged youth with the skills, knowledge and outdoor experiences that grow the Kokoda values of Courage, Endurance, Mateship and Sacrifice. They have provided these fully-funded programs to hundreds of young people since 2004, thanks to the help of Kokoda Challenge participants, like us. Your donation will help more young people realise their potential.
Thank you to our Sponsors

Hi Stephanie, Just wanted to wish you and your team all the best for the Kokoda Challenge. It’s awesome to see people taking on something so tough while raising money for such a great cause. The work the Kokoda Youth Foundation does for young people is incredibly important, and it’s great to be able to support it in some small way. Good luck with the challenge — hope you all do amazingly well

Stephanie, Winter is coming! Keep training hard, keep doing the hard yards and when the morning of the 48km trek in that tough torrain begins and you are in the game, you will succeed and will conquer the Kokoda challenge! Also, be alert, you don't want to run into any white walkers! Good luck!

Stephanie, as a former student of your dad’s, I’ve seen how much he values hard work and preparation. It’s awesome to see you applying those same values to such a tough physical challenge. 48km is no joke, but the training you're doing now will make that finish line feel incredible. All the best!
Kick some butt Stephie!
