Every day in Australia, 71 babies are born prematurely.
This November, we will be taking on the Premmie Marathon Challenge to help give these babies a better chance at life.
Together, we'll be walking, running and moving throughout November while raising funds for Running for Premature Babies. The money we raise will help fund life-saving neonatal equipment and research, supporting premature babies and their families across Australia.
Every donation, no matter the size, helps provide the equipment and care these babies need during their most critical days.
We'd love your support. By donating to our team, you'll be helping us make every kilometre count for Australia's tiniest babies.
And if you'd like to be part of the challenge too, we'd love you to join our team (it's easy - just click JOIN OUR TEAM above). Choose your distance, get moving this November, and help us make an even bigger impact together.
Thank you for supporting us and helping more babies survive and thrive. 💜
Thank you to our donors

Shelly, I haven’t had the privilege of meeting you but Matt you, Shelly and your beautiful son are in Jess, my and all the Earle family’s hearts. Hoping you’re all well personally - I swear I was looking at a photo of you in Europe only a few weeks ago on Facebook - oblivious obviously of everything you have been going through. Safe travels and catch up (and get to meet you Shelly) when you’re back in CQ!
