Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Family,

I hope this message finds you well. As some of you may know, I have taken on a significant challenge: running in the Bravehearts 777 Half-Marathon in Melbourne on 2 July 2025. This journey is not just a personal milestone but a mission to make a difference in the lives of children who desperately need our support.

Bravehearts is an incredible organization dedicated to protecting children from physical and sexual abuse. Their tireless work offers essential services, education, and advocacy to ensure the safety and healing of our most vulnerable. The impact of their efforts is profound, reaching into the heart of communities and providing hope where it is often lost.

The unfortunate reality is that child abuse touches many lives, directly or indirectly. Some of us may know the pain and scars it leaves behind; others may have witnessed the struggle of a loved one. It is a silent epidemic that we cannot ignore. By supporting Bravehearts, we contribute to a future where children can grow up free from the fear and trauma of abuse.

I am reaching out to you today with a heartfelt plea to join me in this cause. Your donations will directly fund Bravehearts' vital programs and initiatives, ensuring that every child receives the protection and support they deserve. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a significant impact.

As I train and prepare for this half-marathon, I carry with me the stories and faces of the countless children Bravehearts has helped. Their courage and resilience inspire me to push forward, and I hope they inspire you to support this mission as well.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support, generosity, and compassion.

With gratitude,

Balraj Dhaliwal
