Rottnest channel swim for premature babies
Did you know that 26,000 babies are born prematurely in Australia each year, and many hospitals are in need of upgraded neonatal equipment to save their lives?
Our team comprised of Annabel, Elle, Maddy and Anabell are swimming the Rottnest channel (a 19.7km open water swim event) to raise funds to support the wonderful work of Running for Premature Babies in giving these premature babies a better chance of survival.
This charity was founded in memory of baby triplets, Henry, Jasper & Evan Smith, who were unable to overcome their prematurity when they were born in 2006. Since then over $9 million has been raised, providing 150 pieces of life-saving equipment that has directly benefitted over 10,000 babies.
Your donation will help keep us motivated, knowing that our race is about so much more than our finishing time.
Any donation, no matter how big or small, will be greatly appreciated and will make a tangible difference to the lives of so many tiny babies.
All donations over $2 are tax deductible.
Thank you so much for your support
