Catching 1000 pitches to raise funds for the Samoa Measles Emergency programme.

Auckland

No child should have to suffer with this deadly and unnecessary disease - not when two doses of a measles vaccine (what a child needs to be fully protected and immunised) costs just $1.

We are under no illusion of the effect that Measles have on families, a nation and of course the children themselves. It is always hard to see little ones suffer especially when it is at first glance a simple fix. That is where awesome and lovely people like yourselves can help and come into play.

Hi there,

My 10 year old son Jaedhan is embarking on a massive challenge on Sunday 12th January 2020.

Jaedhan plays softball for The Roosters Softball Club, U11s & U13s teams, where he plays in the catcher's position for one of these.

In good spirit of the Giving Season and in light of recent events in the Pacific, Jaedhan has decided to pay it forward and raise funds for the Samoa Measles Emergency programme by catching a whopping 1000 (one thousand) pitches by various people and a machine.

Jaedhan is super excited and passionate about helping those in need and would love nothing more than your support on his endeavour.

We would love to thank you all in advance and of course welcome you to come and support this awesome young lad on the 12th January.

We appreciate you.
