SUPPORT MY CHALLENGE TO RAISE FUNDS FOR BLIND LOW VISION NZ GUIDE DOGS

I've gone barking mad, and I'm taking part in the PAWGUST challenge to raise funds for Blind Low Vision NZ Guide Dogs.

Rain, hail or shine, this August, I will be pounding the pavement!

Did you know it costs in excess of $50,000 to breed, raise and train just ONE Guide Dog?! With thousands of dogs being trained each year, every dollar counts. I need your help so that together, we can create a world where everyone who needs a Guide Dog has a Guide Dog.Β 

Please make a donation to support my challenge today. Every bit counts.Β

My Updates

Day 1 & 2 down

Yesterday I scraped through 4km,. I've figured out if I can crack the school walk twice a day that's at least 2km covered. So weekdays, half is sussed. Have already smashed 5km today!Β 

Righto, time to get MOTIVATED

They say you can't talk the talk, without walking the walk - and while I've been working happily on helping Blind Low Vision get their message out there through Media & Advertising, it's time I actually put on the action shoes and get walking!Β 
Chose the biggest KM as well - may end up well regretting it but I hope it inspires you all to give generously towards an incredibly important cause.

Beware - I'm banking on my fitness to greatly improve over time with this one - I'll be putting in the work and the aftershots will be a sweaty mess!!Β
