161KM for Kids with Crohn’s – Sponsor a Lap, Change a Life!

Help Me Support Crohn’s and Colitis NZ & Camp Purple!

As someone living with Crohn’s disease, I know firsthand how challenging it can be. I don’t think anyone—especially young kids—should have to deal with this. That’s why I’m raising funds for Crohn’s and Colitis NZ, supporting their life-changing work, including Camp Purple, a camp designed to bring joy and connection to kids with Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis.

In 2025, I’m excited to volunteer as a Camp Purple leader, working with the youngest group to give my all and make it the best time possible for these amazing kids.

On January 11, 2025, I’ll take on the Sandy Point Backyard Ultra, aiming to complete 24 laps (161 km). To make this effort even more impactful, I’m inviting you to sponsor a lap!

For a $100 donation, you can:

• Choose a costume or company-branded outfit for me to wear for one lap.

• Costumes will be worn in the order donations are received, so get in quick!

• Help raise awareness in a creative, lighthearted way!

But here’s the twist:

• If I don’t complete a sponsored lap (or fail the costume), I’ll personally donate $20 per missed lap to Crohn’s and Colitis NZ.

If $100 isn’t in your budget, that’s okay—feel free to donate any amount to support this incredible cause and help send kids to Camp Purple. Every dollar makes a difference.

This challenge is about pushing my limits, raising awareness, and giving back to the community. Together, we can make a difference—one lap at a time!
