Not Lost Just Walking

About


For Something Bigger Than Ourselves

Our team is taking on the Kokoda Challenge, Australia’s toughest team endurance event. Not just as a physical test, but as a commitment to something bigger than ourselves.

Each of us comes from different walks of life, but we share a belief in showing up when things get hard, leaning on one another, and pushing forward together. The Challenge represents more than distance and elevation. This reflects the values we want to live by and pass on.

We’re hiking to raise vital funds for the Kokoda Youth Foundation, an organisation that delivers life-changing programs for young people across Australia. These programs support youth through structured challenges that build resilience, confidence, and leadership grounded in the core Kokoda values of Courage, Endurance, Mateship, and Sacrifice.

We know firsthand how powerful guidance, purpose, and support can be at the right moment. By taking on this challenge, we’re helping create those moments for young people who need them most.

Every step we take is for them and every donation helps change a life.
