Hello everyone!
Many of you know that I’ve lived with arthritis my whole life — and I understand the daily battles, from treatments to simply getting out of bed and to live a normal life
This summer, I’m turning that struggle into strength. I’ll be walking laps around local ovals to raise awareness and funds for Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis (JRA) research. Over 4,000 children in Australia are living with this painful condition, and it’s becoming more common every year.
📅 When: November 7 – February 7
🎯 Goal: $2,000 for JRA research
💰 How you can help:
I’m asking for a $2 donation per lap — every step helps us get closer to better treatments and brighter futures for kids living with arthritis.
Together, we can make an impact — one lap at a time. 💙
