Running to Protect Children: My Bravehearts 777 Marathon Fundraiser (2 July 2025)
I’m honoured to share that on Wednesday, 2 July 2025, I will be participating in the Bravehearts 777 Marathon in Melbourne. I’m doing so to support Bravehearts, a remarkable Australian child protection organisation dedicated to the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse. Their mission resonates deeply with me, and I believe every child deserves a life free from fear and harm.
It is devastating to learn that 1 in 4 Australians experience child sexual abuse. That statistic alone underscores the urgency of Bravehearts’ work. By running this marathon, I hope to raise funds for Braveheart, and increase awareness of this difficult reality. Every contribution, no matter the amount, aids in continuing the critical work of protecting children.
As I prepare earnestly for this challenge, I will continue to be driven by the knowledge that together, we can help ensure a safer future for young people. Even if you’re unable to donate, your support - a kind word or sharing/forwarding this message on to someone else - is valuable and very much appreciated.
Thank you for standing beside me in this cause. Your generosity and encouragement inspire me and remind me why this effort is so important.
With gratitude and hope,
Amby ♥
