Help my girl Hannah swim her (unbelievably generous) heart out at the 2017 World Masters Games!

Auckland

Hannah is an absolutely incredible person who is always looking out for others. She does an amazing job caring for the children at Starship Hospital, as well as being an unyielding support for the members of Crossfit MCR and all of her friends and family.

Hannah always puts others first and often sets aside her own priorities in order to ensure that others feel safe and happy. As a close friend of Hannah's I can attest that she has all too often lifted me back up when I'm down, and has been such a rock for so many people, even when she has her own personal stuff going on.

At the end of last year Hannah started competing in the Kohi Beach Ocean Swim Series, and since then I have seen her become not only fitter and stronger, but so much more confident and appreciative of herself. It has been an absolute honour to watch Hannah's journey and to see her begin to recognise how incredible she really is. She has worked so so hard to get to where she is now, and I would love the opportunity to see her achieve something incredible for herself - competing in the 5km open water swim at the 2017 World Masters Games.

Although Hannah is aware of how much we all love her, it would be great if we could show our support for her to achieve this amazing goal! All donations are hugely appreciated. Let's go Han!!!!

Hannah is not only one of my closest friends but also an incredible role model for a large number of people. She always puts others ahead of herself and I feel like it is time for her to prioritise one of her goals. I have so much love for this girl and feel so privileged to have her in my life. No matter what am always so proud of you Han, and it's such an honour to be part of this awesome journey you are on. Love you long time girl xxx

We did it!!!!!  8 March 2017

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE!!! Hannah and all of us are super proud to be able to say that Han is going to the 2017 World Masters Games!!!!!! We could not have done this without all of your kindness, generosity, support and love and we are incredibly grateful for each and every one of you! Hannah is putting in her entry today and she is super excited!!! The $150 we aimed to raise for Hannah would have covered half of her entry fee to the World Masters Games, but given the generous amount you have donated we now have enough to cover Hannah's entire $295 entry fee. I have spoken to Hannah and she has decided to donate the excess funds to Women's Refuge, a non-profit organisation which aims to protect and support women and children exposed to domestic violence. Once again thank you so much for your support - it is deeply appreciated.
