Emily’s Ironman Journey for a Cause 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️

$1,880 donated

Given by 15 generous donors in around 8 months

Training hard to raise funds so youth facing challenges get the support and opportunities they need for a brighter future.

Christchurch, Canterbury

I’m training for OxMan, Challenge Wanaka, and Ironman Taupō (plus other events leading up) — 3 tough endurance events that test mental and physical strength. I’m doing this not just to finish, but to raise funds for a cause close to my heart. 🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️

💛 Te Rangatahi Tūmanako Trust (The Youth Hope Trust)

Founded in 2015, this trust supports young people through life’s most challenging times. Reon Nolan, the founder and one of my coaches, has transformed his life and now mentors young people to find hope and purpose.

The Trust utilises donations to provide essentials such as food, shoes, and activities that foster confidence and resilience. Reon has completed challenges with Youth from the Trust, such as Motatapu, Coast to Coast, and marathons.
