First Squirrel racechair in NYC Marathon!!

$786 of $8,500 goal
Given by 12 generous donors in around 6 months

Supporting me so I can support and encourage others with disabilities. NYC Marathon in race wheelchair, wearing a squirrel suit, under 3hrs!

Greenlane, Auckland

I'm Lee Warn and I've been in wheelchair for 35 years. I've accomplished a lot, from being the first wheelchair to climb up the SkyTower, to being the first solo racechair to push around Lake Taupo... I want to encourage everyone with a disability to strive to achieve more. Push yourself, and do the best you can.

This is a mammoth endeavor, but with your support, I know I can achieve this goal. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a huge difference in helping me reach my dream, of being the first ever race wheelchair completing the Abbotts six star medal in a squirrel suit.

Thank you in advance for your support, and for believing in me and my abilities. Together, we can show the world that no obstacle is too great to overcome. Let's make this dream a reality, one step at a time. Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey with me. πŸΏπŸ‘

Anyone that donates $500.00 or over, is eligible for a gifted speaking engagement from me! You could also pass this on to your local business, school or other (like a pass the parcel - Please make sure to choose to share your email address). Then I can be a gift, that keeps giving! Thanks to you.

Most people are chasing first. Not enough people are chasing fun.

To donate and support my journey, check out this GiveALittle page, for more info on me, please visit my page [LeeWarn.org].

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Use of funds

Funds go towards flights, accommodation, etc and plans for NYC Marathon as well. Total costs $8,600nzd

Anything above this amount (I am hopeful), will be put into the other upcoming races in future Six Star medal series.

Oh wow, what a roller coaster ride the last few months were. Thank you so much for all your support, and if you haven't seen any of my posts, we did it!!

I couldn't have done it without the support of event reading this, with you behind me, anything is possible.

Cheers again, and for a while I'll rest, next year, couple small events, then big surgery... followed by the next 4 majors!! Woop-woop!!
