Story

Hi there,

 

This year we have been given the opportunity to run in the New York Marathon, all while supporting Little Heroes Foundation. 

 

Since 1996 Little Heroes Foundation (formerly MMF) has raised in excess of $38 million, the majority used to upgrade lifesaving facilities at Adelaide’s Women’s and Children’s Hospital. They have also provided daily support to families in need through their Little Heroes Care program.

 

Little Heroes Foundation have partnered with Breakthrough Mental Health Research Foundation for their “Big Talks for Little People” program - an online mental health module for primary school age students within South Australia and the Northern Territory.  The last 2 years have taken a massive toll on the mental health of so many South Australians, especially children, so there is a great need in this area.

 

They continue to watch their traditional area of support, children with cancer and serious illness, to see if there are any new opportunities or areas of need. 

 

All funds raised will help Little Heroes Foundation continue to provide the support that these children and their families need.

 

We feel very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to take part in such a world famous event. Having both endured injuries, stopping us from running, we couldn't be more excited to tackle a run as big as this. Who knew that two boys from Adelaide would get the opportunity to run in NYC!? 


All contributions, big or small are greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you!

    Little Heroes Foundation Incorporated

    In 27 years of operation, Little Heroes Foundation has raised close to $40 million - the majority going towards purchasing lifesaving equipment at Adelaide’s Women’s and Children’s Hospital and providing daily support to families through the Little Heroes Care Program. Little Heroes is also pleased to announce a new partnership with the Childhood Dementia Initiative. There are almost 90 deaths each year from this illness, yet little is known about the 70 different variants of this condition. The Foundation is currently running the campaign ‘Raise it for Renee’, supporting a South Australian mum with all three of her children experiencing the devastating impacts of terminal childhood dementia. Little Heroes has committed $50,000 to support Renee and families like hers. In conjunction with this campaign we are also funding a PhD student in Professor Kim Hemsley's team at Flinders University to assist them with finding potential treatments and cures for childhood dementia. Our partnership with Breakthrough Mental Health Research Foundation continues to grow through our Big Talks for Little People campaign, along with a new commitment towards an Eating Disorder Facility to be built here in South Australia. For more information on our organisation, please visit https://www.littleheroesfoundation.com.au/ As Little Heroes Foundation receives no government funding, the difference that we make to the lives of seriously ill children is not possible without the continued support of people just like you. Fundraising is such an important area for all charities, and thanks to Go Fundraise, it is easy to fundraise for Little Heroes Foundation.
