I'm trekking the 10 Peaks Challenge for Youngcare
For four incredible days, I'll be taking on the adventure of a lifetime, where I'll be taken out of my comfort zone, to raise much needed funds and awareness for young people with physical disabilities.
Did you know that thousands of young people with complex and permanent physical disabilities are being left behind in places like aged care or institutional homes? It's simply because there has been nowhere else for them to go.
Youngcare is fighting for freedom, dignity and choice for young people with complex and permanent physical disabilities to choose where they live, who they live with, and how they live their lives.
Please donate to my page and show your support. Donations directly support young people with physical disabilities!

Help me make a difference!
Tuesday 17th FebI am taking on the 2026 Youngcare Ten Peaks Challenge to help raise funds and awareness for Youngcare. For four days (27 – 31 May 2026), I will be taking on the formidable challenge by hiking 60kms and conquering the top 10 peaks in Kosciuszko National Park, Australia. This rugged and isolated environment, with its challenging conditions and limited choices, serves as a powerful reminder of the daily struggles faced by young people with physical disabilities.

Some thing about me is that I’ve spent the past 11 years being my beautiful sons informal carer it’s just been the past year I’ve been able to re live some kind of normal routine, that would have never been possible with out the help of service providers and amazing people who help families and individuals though many different ways ! We do appreciate! You got this !

Fundraising
Fundraising 101: You've Got This!
FUNDRAISING TIPS
Jazz up your page and include photo’s and details on what you’re undertaking for Youngcare. This shows your potential donors why you care and how their support will be making a difference in young people’s lives.
Lead the way and add a donation to yourself first to show your commitment as well as encouraging others to support you!
Make a promise to your donors, if you reach a certain fundraising target you’ll… go without coffee, run an extra 10km, or anything else that might motivate your supporters to give more – plus it’s a great way to incentivise your donors and keep them connected with your challenge!
Connect your fundraising page to your social media and update all your friends and family on your progress. Use our resources above to help spread the word!
Update your email signature with our personalized email signatures. Email everyone you know and tell them what you’re planning and how they can support you!
Ask your workplace if they are able to help support by matching every dollar you raise
Either in person, or virtual, a fundraising event is a great fun way of raising funds and awareness. Think a bake sale, car wash, zoom trivia night, work morning tea, or in lieu of a birthday or celebration, ask your friends and family to donate to your page!
If you have any questions at all regarding fundraising for the 10 Peaks Challenge, get in contact with Youngcare!
