About
Support Springwood Storm in the Kokoda Challenge
Four Year 12 students — Declan, Jay, Kian, and Joel — are taking on the 30km Brisbane Kokoda Challenge to raise funds for the Kokoda Youth Foundation.
This event honours the Spirit of Kokoda: Courage, Endurance, Mate ship, and Sacrifice, while supporting youth programs that help young Australians build resilience, leadership, and life skills.
Your donation will directly support these programs and help us reach our fundraising goal. Every contribution counts.
Thank you for your support. The Kokoda Youth Foundation is an Australian charity that runs free youth programs for kids in the local community, empowering disadvantaged and disengaged youth with the tools to realise their full potential.
By making a tax-deductible donation today, you can support our team in The Kokoda Challenge and provide Australian youth with life-changing opportunities.
