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.
What a fantastic cause – I’m sure you’ll do amazing. Back in my fitter days, I used to run up and smash the “1000 Steps” (Kokoda Track in the Dandenong Ranges). There are pit stops and plaques along the way where you can pause (catch your breath) and reflect on the soldiers’ stories. Best of luck – you’ve got this!
