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

Your great grand father walked the Kokoda trail 3 times during world war 2 . He was a field officer on the trail for more than 2 years attending to wounded soldiers. He would be looking down on you from heaven and I am sure would be so proud of you Noah.

Hey mate, just wanted to say how impressed I am that you’re taking on an 18km run for charity at only 18 years old. That takes real commitment, discipline, and heart, and it’s awesome to see someone your age putting in the effort to make a difference for others. I was more than happy to donate to support both you and the cause because what you’re doing genuinely deserves backing. Wishing you the best of luck for the run — stay strong, keep pushing through the tough parts, and be proud of what you’re achieving.
